Papa Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Following up on Yowies post yesterday, I ventured out with one of my grandsons in what was forecast to be pretty good conditions. We are in 4.2 mtr Brooker tinny so like stick to the calmer days. The swell did have a few bumps but the NW wind was up and put us on a solid SE drift. This was the first time we fished with a 'fishfinder' so our first drop was in 25 metres. Never really new what depth it was up till today. So we started fishing a bit after 8:30 and had two in the ice by 9:00. We never really found a patch of flatties and dropped a couple before we called it at 10:00 with five solid keepers as conditions were becoming uncomfortable. Headed back inside and tried a couple the usual spots and picked up the tailor. He went 35cms and will recycled for bait. We avoided all the pickers and throwbacks to have these five that were from 42 to 46cms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowie Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 You have enough for a feed, good work. It was a little bit bumpy the day I was out. As you said, still some swell about yesterday, so I had a swim at Wanda Beach, Some good waves there, but the water is still cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 Trailcraft43....I reckon this lot are Northern Sand variety. Yowie might confirm as he hold the record for these flatties! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
