Flathead feasting on slimies


The President

Recommended Posts

Hi raiders,

Went out Saturday afternoon from the Hacking, conditions were very pleasant. After a bit of searching found masses of small slimies and flathead underneath. As the flathead started coming on board it was interesting to notice that most had whole slimies either in their mouths or guts. Free swimming flathead were also seen following up hooked flathead all the way to the boat. Water depth was around 40 metres. Left them biting.

Cheers,

Hey Pres

where about were the slimies if you dont mind me asking. Wouldn't mind stocking up on some bait.

Flaties were taken on cuttle fish strips found floating. More durable than the caught slimies. At times one cuttle strip was reused to catch several fish.

Duck egg slimies were very thick covering the sounder entirely from top to bottom. Start at 35m depth from Jibbon and sound North zig zagging.
