Sharky Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Hey Basserman to the sight nice flatty mate but to get the record i think you need to take a photo of the fish with a tape measure im not sure of the rules maby another raider can clarify them for us both welcome once again
numbers Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Welcome to the site Basserman. Only joined today myself - have been checking out the site for a while though. Beautiful fish. Well done.
Hooky. Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Basserman, seen you around the traps. Hope you enjoy Fishraider, plenty of helpful members around this joint. cheers Hooky
Basserman Posted October 18, 2005 Author Posted October 18, 2005 yeh sorry about that i was just going by a few of the other post, doesn't bother men anyway as i never go chaseing record i just love catching and chaseing them flathead did give a pretty good account for it's self and the only shame was they on only packed the 1kg stick away a few casts before hand ohwell i'm sure i will get another one onedat like that on the 1kg gear and sure it will be one of the best buzzes i will have
Basserman Posted October 19, 2005 Author Posted October 19, 2005 solid fish bro... where was it caught? mid north coast nsw
robthefisherman Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 to the site basserman Nice lizard there mate
crystalliser Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 Basserman! Nice lizard you've had there, no doubt that's a mama size fish. Hadn't caught anything on the pearl blue bm though. Nice fancy outfit you've had there too!
big_steve Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 well done basserman, great catch and welcome cheers steve
deckie 3 Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 Nice fish, I fish with soft plastics regularly down in Lake Macq. If you love catching big flathead head on down, though after the last Flathead classic up at the Gold Coast...theres some damn good fish up in those water ways. Though I haven't fished it in years the river upstream of the Macksville bridge also holds some surprisingly good lizards Cheers
Basserman Posted October 21, 2005 Author Posted October 21, 2005 thanks to all i have only fished the nambucca river one and while it didn't fire for me still looked the good and i must get back up there this summer i'm sure lucky to live in the area i do as it isn't uncommon for flathead this size to be taken i love catching both bream and bass on plastics but these big flathead sure come close
Basserman Posted October 21, 2005 Author Posted October 21, 2005 You still moving to Qld Basserman ?? no found a last minute job down here that will do for the time being so hopefuly i woun't need to move for a while yet misses love the fact we are only a few streets from the water and five mins to the beaches
