queensland Flatfish After Work

[timtam_]

Managed to wet a line on Friday afternoon after an early-ish knockoff on Friday. Took the tinnie straight down to Boggy Creek to fish the start of the run out. 

Water was clear with the perfect amount of flow and we totalled 8 flatties between us over two hours. Some small, some average, with the biggest going 46cm. Mike started with a Gulp Shrimp (which is literally a green and white plastic stick), and quickly switched to the white Zman 4 inch Curly Tails which I was having many more hits on. We probably dropped another 4 fish and home in time for dinner. 

If you haven't already, Boggy Creek can be a decent place to fish if you figure out which are the more productive tides. I've seen jewies and snapper caught from under the bridge, as well as some much bigger flatties and it is literally mullet heaven. I must say I was surprised to see a mullet hit the plastic!

I haven't fished the port since the fire foam spill but you have made me have a rethink. Those Zman curly tails in the white colours certainly work well in that area. Thanks for sharing.

Mullet on plastics. Tick that one off the list. Ypu must have cast it into its mouth. 

Looks like something going on with its eye too.

The jig head smacked him in the eye for a reaction bite.....

Nice Friday afternoon session @timtam_

@Old Scaley even if I don't keep a feed, the port is 20 mins from home so I'd be mad to ignore it! 

@Junky yeah both of its eyes looked the same...

@Luke Landrunner challenge accepted? ahahaha maybe next species for origin
