Kayak tailor in boggy creek

[MOC]

Took the kayak for a paddle at boggy creek today at 11.00 and ended up finding a school of tailor of all things.

This little fella would have gone close too 40cm and was caught trolling a mad mullet deep targeting flathead on my 4lb freshwater outfit (heartland x with regal x reel).

Its been so long since I have been light tackle fishing in salt water i had forgotten how hard these little fellas go. I would even say they go harder than bass of similar size.

After a quick pic with the camera on the phone It was released too fight another day.

I located the fish again and caught a few more before heading back. I now need to convince the missus I need a waterproof camera to save having to get the camera or phone out of dry storage for every pic so its not such a chore.

Good to see the Viking is sercing you well mate!

Any issues with it? Or pro's

Dont mind hearing pro's and cons in the public as its great for market research.

Nice fish by the way and from the bottom???

Yes mate they were all about the same size and were schooled up in a hole on the east side of boggy creek just after it widens.

G'day Angus

I am very happy with the profish 45

Pro's

The large storage well in middle of kayak very convenient.

Recess for the transducer in the hull is great.

Tracks very straight.

Cons

A little heavy.

I believe it is the best designed kayak on the market for bait fishing as everything is within reach. The large centre well works as an esky with a bait board on top. when anchored from the rear the two forward facing rod holders come into their own.

If Viking were to make an ultra light version and i would have to upgrade.

Thanks. Mick

I read a report last year and had a few doubts and It was a lot clearer then.

Im guessing they were near that old rusty pole on the point just as the river narrows?

Nice catch any flatties?

[MOC]

They were in a hole about 300m west of that near an old white boat that had a generator running. No flathead.
