Jewhunter Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 G'day Raiders. Coollamon was desperate for a fish. On msn last night, at 11.30pm mind you, he wanted to go. Settle down I said. Why don't we hit H.C Bay at the ungodly hours of 1.30pm to 3.30pm. So the plan is set & off we go. I was watching the barometer rise all last night & today & was confident the fish would be on the chew. I tie on a bass minnow & after checking out his tackle box suggest a 50mm squidgy fish with a pink paddle tail. ' The Flatties love 'em' I say,' & the big Bream will scoff them to'. Well wouldn't you know it. 1st cast & a 35cm Flattie smashes his placcy in full view. Smiles all round! 3rd cast & he gets bitten off by another & next cast lands one of the same size. 2 casts later & he's into another lizard! Bloody hell! I'm the one that's supposed to know what they're doing & I'm fishless! Getting the poops with Flatties, I decide to move. ( nothing to do with being outfished! ) I decided to we'd cast near an overhanging tree. Again first cast, after 2 twitches, John gets smashed! ZZZZZ! Now this is a good fish! It gives him plenty before he leads it into 1 of Wattos new environets & we have a new p.b for John. A fat 38cm to the fork Bream! Woohooo. Right, enough of this! We head to where I wanted to be be for the turn of the tide & I start to even up the ledger. 1st cast & a nice Bream & next cast 1 a bit smaller. We poled them & the highlight was a 70 cm Flattie for me that went nuts in the shallow water. The bite slowed so we moved to another spot & scored a couple of more fish before it was time to head home. We ended up with 12 fish, 5 Bream & 7 Flatties for our 2.5hr session. Top fishing! Thanks for the company John & a big congrats on the p.b! I had a great time chewing the fat & we had heaps of laughs. You can fish with me anytime! Here's the pics of the days best fish. Cheers, Grant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flattieman Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) Great session, fellas! I managed a 63cm flattie myself today - lost two others the same size at my feet... Damn 4lb trace! Lovely PB, coolamon. Well done on the big lizard, Grant! High tide, murky water and a riding barometer are always good! 38cm fork... Wow! Flattieman.

Bream Mad Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Top Session Guys Great Bream there mate 38cm and fat as HC Bay realy goes off, i will have to come over a give it a go, sooner rather than later. I fished practically the same time but at my EP spot for a big fat donut, had many small bream follow the plastic, but they would not even touch it on the pause Well done again BM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
