First fish (flatty) on soft plastics

[dale91]

Went down to carss park today for a fish with my new soft plastic set up.

This was my second fishing session on my new set up which I bought yesterday and only managed a quick unsuccessful fish around midday at low tide because I was to excited to wait.

Today I fished the end of run in and the start of run out tide during the morning.

I managed to hook on to one flatty just under legal size, around 33cms. Sorry I didn't get any good photos , I was so excited to finally catch one though!!

My new set up is a shimano catana 6'6" 3-5kg rod, paired with a sienna 2500 reel. 8lb braid with a 7lb fluro leader and I was using an 1/8th jighead and a 3 inch minnow SP.

Very happy

Thanks for the support guys! I'm in a wheel chair at the moment from a few (6) operations an my ankles and feet.

So I'll wet my line and report back soon enough!

Great stuff mate and congratulations on your success.

Even better and more inspiring to be able to do this whilst confined to a wheel chair

May this be the first of endless fish caught on SP for you.

Keep up the great work.
