    So after my long practice with soft plastics, I caught a cracking Flathead this week. My first SP catch. Today (Sunday) I took FisherladySteve to try it with some useful tips from myself. She turned out to be a natural. We fished Blackwattle Bay as its just outside our back door. After a few casts and moving to our second spot she caught her first fish on SP's, a snapper. She was totally made up and can't wait for another trip.

    It's been a while from old FishermanSteve here.. But for good reason. I have been endlessly practicing my soft plastic skills. Today popped the cherry. A 57cm Flathead caught from Rose Bay off the small jetty by the boat ramp. It was on my final cast of a short 45minute session and what a catch!!

    Yeah one piece is a bit of a pain to get around for me as don't have a vehicle. I use a shimano raider most of the time goes to three pieces fits in tube for my backpack. Rarely I will take my one piece, 7ft rod.(for the larger species)

    I've caught snapper, trevally, flathead and even bream with strips of mullet. I've caught them all times of the day. Chipping Norton seems to have an abundance of mullet and I've caught even areas without structure

    Sedona is a lovely smooth reel mate

    Mix some bread crumbs fish oil and water to throw out near where you are casting to get them in

    Small mullet are plentyful at Chipping Norton mate. A Paternoster with a couple of small hooks and bread always does the trick. I've not had a problem there any time of the day

    After the recent rain stopping me from getting out finally a day to enjoy some fishing. Pompom and myself headed to Blues Point pre sunrise. Alternating between squid, pilchard and mullet as bait. Pompom had an eel. The eel must of thought he had his jelly ready as pompom is the most cockney geezer I know. I caught a baby snapper and a 40cm Flathead. We saw others getting bonito on lures.

    The Shimano raider surf rod is nice mate I've caught a couple of decent fish with it. Was about $139 from memory

    Using live bait land based I use a live bait slider. Plenty of YouTube videos about them

    Oh don't use the rigs more than twice as the salt corrodes them and they will just break

    Hey mate, get some sabiki rigs from Kmart. Tip them with very small bits of chicken breast or thigh. Clifton Gardens and Chipping Norton lake I've had success!!
