Yeah, the ones I got today weren't quite that big, in fact I would have taken a pic of them but didn't have my macro lense with me :)
I thought it would be more appropriate here.Quote:

Bream whiting Trevally tailor flathead plenty to choose from.
Thanks Mego, will give it a go tomorrow.

Once your there, a little further left you'll see a little bay with a small mangrove in the water at the edge.Quote:

The lure is made by Zerek Innovations, probably the one lure pattern I've had good success with using soft plastics.
This is what the packaging looks like.

My sister in law also caught a mangrove jack from here as well.

Thanks Mego, some great info there mate.
LOL I was just thinking what an "average" looking girl your sis in law is until I read the disclaimer :)
Going through my gear tonight I realise that I'm going to need a couple of new outfits, as most of the stuff I have is either deep sea bottom bouncing, game fishing or heavyish Barra gear (20 & 50lb baitcasters) with a couple of very light bream sticks. Will have to venture into Davo's and see what I can find :)
They're just as helpful in BCF in Noosa civic.Quote:

Good luck. Just remember, a bad days fishing is better than a good day at work.Quote:

Beautiful morning, wind is up now so might check it out this arvo if the wind settles down a bit.

Been pulling a few decent bream out of your spot Mego but nothing else on the chew there yet. You'll just have to come back up and show me how it's done :)

Biggest flattie was 51cm.
My mate went out a couple hours earlier and he got 23 flatties and 12 squid. Thus the reason to go try.
Good afternoon session mate :)

Nice one mate!
Flatties still not playing nice here, can get all the bream I want but the boss doesn't like bream!!
Can't wait for the bloody house to sell so I can get the boat.

The yellow fin bream are quite tasty. Much better than our black bream.Quote:

I agree, they are a very sweet tasting fish, but flatties are her favourite so I'll just keep trying.
Was messing about yesterday with the new rig, getting a feel for it and tossing one of those prawn plastics around. Been at it for about an hour without a touch when a couple of blokes (poms) rocked up and proceeded to chuck a silver spinner with a treble on it around. Four casts later he's hooked up and drags the fish into shore, both of them standing there looking perplexed. They called me over and asked what type of fish it was......bloody 50cm flattie! They didn't have cooking facilities so gave the fish to me :)

Any way on to the fishing ended up with about 80 to 90kg snapper , sharks were a handful probably cost 10 or so fish , the fish pretty much chewed all day so a bit sore today , skull dragging from 90m of water to bet the sharks takes it out of ya ,
