Had a 2 hour window yesterday arvo so I hit a spot up the Georges where I got a couple of nice fish a fortnight ago. The tide was into the last half of the runout and I caught and released plenty of smaller flatties, bream and whiting in the first hour. Noticed a tick one one of my lines and the tip stopped vibrating and bent slightly back. I lifted the rod out of the holder and applied some pressure, at first not much resistance as the line came onto the spool pretty easily but then as the leader peeked out of the water, I realised the was some serious weight below. Got my first glimpse of a very nice flatty and after a few minutes of her ducking and weaving near the surface, I slid her into the big net and of course, she went ballistic and flew back out into the drink. One more attempt and she was netted, I slipped the grips onto her lower jaw and peddaled over to a nearby beach to measure (84cm), photograph and release her. She sulked a bit but after a few minutes of swimming her, she slid back into the muddy depths. Took two 40s back home for dinner and I'll be back out there again next week!
