Ribs Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I have been going well on the flatys of late, so when a good mate who has never caught anything on plastics asked me to take him out after a lengthy Friday night beer discussion , I confidently promised a good fish, a beer bet was placed, so The pressure was on me to deliver. Went out yesterday at midday to rebait my pots, drifted a new sand bank in 1-2m and after 3 drifts my job was done and we had enough for a feed.. his first fish went 43, second 53 , my two 49 and 56, yes I was happy mine were bigger than his! Back at ramp cleaning fish 2pm. ??? Another plastic Virgin added to my belt? My son claimed the biggest one for diner tonight, as he does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not getting excited just yet mate, still searching for a 85+ model.... but happy with my results of late especially in my backyard, and yes my mate is hooked on plastics now, so another win for us lure fishos!
