The rods can handle the weight, it's the shock of flicking the lure that will cause a problem. Some of the big baits you cast when fishing in a Thai fishing park are enormous, but with the right technique it's quite common. But you can still bust 50lb braid just casting them if it gets screwed up. Power is not your friend it this case, inertia is.

Landed lunch this morning during a very wet and windy couple of hours at Hayes inlet. 43cm Flatty and 23cm whiting. I was happy to get anything in those conditions. Are squid out and about long the peninsula yet?

I agree with Neil, different spots at different stages of the tide.... Incoming look for feeding banks about to get a few inches of water on them....they will be feeding hard there for about 30 minutes. Keep following the flooding banks as the water rises. You want to cast into about 6 inches of water roughly. Once the bites have tapered off you need to find where they will wait for food to come to them....look for a sand bank that tapers down to the river bank along the river.....you can bet a years wages they will sit there until the top of the tide vacuuming up all the worms and small crabs and yabbies dislodged by the sand bank being disturbed. You really should recon the river towards the last of the run out tide to learn where this high tide spot will be. Ideally the sand bank should be at least 1/2 the river wide and taper down to the bank on one side only on the upstream end.....the fish will be over the last 15 metres of that bank guaranteed. Google Earth Pro shows these sand banks quite well too....another way to plan your run.

I find the tide sizes don’t really affect it too much , you’ve just got to be prepared to move around and position yourself in the right spots during your session down there. It’s always about knowing how the puzzle works ie how when why and where you anchor your boat and present your baits. Whiting will move to where the food is., think like the fish .Sounds like you tried a few spots ,but hey , not all was lost , at least you’ve found where they don’t bite on those tides. The next trip will be better. regards neil
