Scratchie Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 G’day raiders, Just a quick report from this morning. Was going to head out with Woodsy but a quick change of plans ment I was going solo. So I decided to dust off the yak and drift around the bay! Paddled out in great conditions, had an sp drifting behind me and casting a 1/8 3/0 jig with a 5 inch in front. It took a while to find them but once I did a got a few. All around the 50cm size! Great fun and a peaceful morning on the water! Cheers scratchie!!! P.s I didn’t find any buckets or dinosaurs lol 😂I need more practice! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoingFishing Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Looks like a very relaxing way to spend some time on the water Jeff. I would have kept some flatties for fillets though !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Good work there Scratchie. For a bit of excitement, you need to drop an angry and wriggling flattie in between your legs and try to stop it from spiking your 'jatz crackers'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenno64 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Good to see you on a real fishing platform Scratchie😁 Nice catch and choice conditions!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordoRetired Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Released... Well done, but I have a strange thing with Flathead, they are so good to eat I just cant let them go, so long as they are at least over 40cm. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cracking day and got a nice drift all the way back so the fuel consumption was pretty good! 1 hour ago, GordoRetired said: Released...

I also like to keep a feed of flatty and do on most occasions but this day was just merely to wet a line! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
