mrmoshe Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Yesterday was so much fun..I thought I'd give it another lash this morning. Same result..the flatties were hungry again for live poddies and so were the tailor. The tailor were smashing livies as soon as they hit the water and it was hard to get the livie down to to flatties on the bottom. (kept a few back to smile for the camera) The 2 flatties are accompanying me for dinner tonight. Pike put on their aerial display and chewed up my leaders again...bastards! That lake is firing like never before. 2 flatties..biggest 46cm.. 6 tailor..all released. 4 bream..released 3 more stinky pike..gladly released. Cheers, Pete.

arpie Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Well done, Pete - good to see you back onto the flatties!! Nice looking catch! Don't you hate those slimey pike? Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmoshe Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 Where abouts on the lakes? Woolies bridge? No, further around towards Ocean St. bridge. Bergo..I use one of those perspex cylindrical ones, but any old juice bottle with a slot cut in the top works fine. I'll guarantee you'll get enough for a session..they are everywhere over the sand flats. Thanks for the everyone..it's good to get back to fishing again. Cheers, Pete,.

mrmoshe Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Hello MP, could you please show us your rig for the poddie mullet? Tankyou. (Hopefully) Matt It's a simple rig really for me. I use 6lb vanish flouro main line, to a small swivel, then I use 8lb seaguar flourocarbon trace about one metre in length with a very small ball sinker running down to a #5 fine wire wide gape hook. The sinker is just heavy enough to make the livie slowly sink and not let him swim on the surface. The wide gape hook always gets 'em in the corner of the mouth that stops them (mostly) biting you off. Good luck. Hope that helps. Cheers, ' Pete.

bergo Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 thanks for that where abouts do u put the hook through the poddie mullet. Tail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmoshe Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 thanks for that where abouts do u put the hook through the poddie mullet. Tail? Oh yeah, forgot that part. I pin them just behind the dorsal. Make sure you don't put the hook too far near the spine or it'll die. Sometimes I pin 'em by the tail if they are larger livies and trim one side of the tail as this makes them really swim hard to escape predators.

jewgaffer Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Nice work again on the flathead Pete good size tailor too, it might pay to go in off Ocean road and drop a couple out butterflied... an hour or so before dark for the next couple of days should probably show what's going to happen up there anyway ....
