Fishless!! Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Hi All I am pretty new to using soft plastics, and decided to go and practice in Deep Creek at Narrabeen Lake this afternoon. 3rd cast I was on, and as it got closer I could see it was a nice flatty of about 50cm ... in my excitement, I lifted the rod, the fish jumped out of the water, shook it's head, and said bye bye to my SP!!! Bugger!! Stayed on for another hour or two and walked up and down the creek (near the entrance) for just one more flatty of 35cm. These SP things really work!! I'm hooked!!

Flattieman Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 (edited) These SP things really work!! I'm hooked!! Mike They sure do, Mike. Just keep at it and you'll nail the technique/rigging etc and start to catch more per session. Well done. Flattieman.

mrmoshe Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Good on you Mike. Glad to see the flatties up the back of the lake like that. I have hard there are some monsters lurking up near there, so another session might be in order for you. Great that the SP's are doing the trick for you. Once the old flatties head is out of the water, those head shakes can ruin your day. Cheers, Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
