Howdoweplaythis Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Just a quick question, with spring now here, is it still too early for land based flatties? I picked up a flathead on plastics at Balmoral the other day. Have places like Narra lake warmed up enough for flatties to come back on consistently? I'm itching for a flathead feed...

rjc123 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Worth a go but i'd be waiting til maybe mid october.. They should be biting hot around then. Well done on a balmoral SP flattie.. Only ever got them on baits there.. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I'm going to find out (at Narra) next Wednesday. Forecast of 26C which might warm up the shallows enough to make the flatties feel hungry...

rjc123 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Having said that, a mate got a 70cm fish landbased today in middle harbour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyNurse Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 G'day guys, I was talking to a bloke at work just yesterday and he told me that there's an old saying; when the wattle is in bloom, the flathead start biting. Probably an old husband's tale, but there may be some element of truth to it. Anyway, it never hurts to just go and start fishing for them at any rate. So long as someone can turn off this bloody wind in Sydney! Brrrrr. Nursie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
