manhands Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Great feed there, love offshore flatties. What's the fish being cleaned in background? Salmon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belligero Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Nice catch,What's the bag limit on flathead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexaway1234 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 yeah big snapper leads to ensure dragging bottom cause 10kt wind still pushed my heavy boat in reasonable speed drift just on normal patenoster rigs. there were 3 of us but bag limit is 20 per person... i cant imagine what on earth you would need that much for if they good sized ones!

Linc Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Some very nice tails there, well done. They start to actually provide a bit of a fight at that size which makes it a bit more fun when hauling them up through the 60 meters of water. Counting down the weeks till my boat gets here, I can taste those flatty tails already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
