BUSTER 1 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 (edited) Hit the Bay this morning it was bloody cold there was ice on the windscreen of the car , Seabreeze said it was going to be a good day and I was desperate for a fish so away we went got on the water about 8am, the first hour was pretty slow with only 2 small fish but then Monty gets a good hit and after a good fight up comes a 63cm flathead after that it got quite again for around hour but as the tide started run the flathead came on the bite not as good as they had been on my last 2 trips we were getting a fish every second drift or so and they were good fish 45cm to 56cms so the next couple of hours was good fishing and the weather just got better and better buy 11am the wind was just about gone and we had defrosted any way we had enough fish so we called it a day we caught 10 or 12 flathead kept 6 the bigger fish were released All fish were caught on lures Edited July 16, 2007 by mrs rzep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tumra Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 nice looking fish mate. Good work.... I was on the bay yesterday, the water was very calm and the wind was down, but the fish just wern't biting. Even up the river towards oatley there was little action. Where are you drifting for the flatties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
