Cheers Paddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benzeenees Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 It depends on what you're fishing for. Could still be some whiting in close - just a running sinker above a long shanked #5 hook. If you're after salmon or taylor maybe use a paternoster rig. Use pilchards or fish strips for bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paddy69 Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 Thanks guys. I will be fishing for whiting off the beach and flatheads in the lake....In the Clyde River I will be targeting flathead and maybe a Jewie if the wife lets me out after dark :-) I can't wait to get down there!

Rich P Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Durras is full of flathead at the moment. I was there on the weekend throwing surface lures around in ankle deep water for whiting scored a few with the better half catching a nice bream in ankle deep water. Didnt take any plastics with me as flathead are so easy to catch down there.You could catch them on a sinker with a slice of onion bag tied to it.They are that easy. Trust me it works. If your staying at North D start around the boat ramp.But get there early as it was standing room only last weekend. The beach front had some good gutters out the front of Lakesea caravan park dont know about North D as i didnt cross the entrance. Good luck Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
