SCOURING THE CITY FLATS!

More action Downunder, this time in the urban setting under the glorious sunshine. Chasing the typical estuarine species on ultralight gear is so much more than just the size of the catch. We had fun with every single fish hooked, each fight ultra intense on the gear used...


Off the road and into a boat, it couldn't be easier...



Soft plastics on first, and hopped along a visible weedbed in the shallows hoping for a Flathead. But a Bream got to the Jackall Waver Shrimp first...

Couple more casts was all it took to find the intended quarry, and the ultra light Major Craft MS-X Limited spin rod was loaded up by this nice Lizard...

It took the Jackall Waver Shrimp like the Bream before it...

This weedbed seemed to be crawling with them. The Jackall Waver Shrimp finds another Flathead...

Shallow minnows cranked over the said beds worked just as well...

The IMA Sasuke in little SF-75 size scores...

Then we went even smaller with the tiny DUO Tetraworks Toto shallow runner and got this Bream...

The Toto was irresistible to an ambushing Flathead as well...

The fish in all its glory...

It was almost a fish every three casts with the DUO Toto...

The MS-X Limited by Major Craft in UL guise was magic to use...

Meanwhile the shallow IMA Sasuke continues to score...

Weed bed edges and little drop-offs often produced and the fishing was as much fun as we could have...

The Flatties seemed to love the little DUO Toto, and it was hardly surprising...

One of the better fish for the day...

There was no end to the Flathead, the sheer abundance was welcome change to the usual hard fishing we were used to...

With the odd Bream thrown in, there was nothing more we could ask for. The DUO Toto continued to score...

The Flathead on the run out tide were snapping at lures like they were on a buffet line...

We had to leave the fish biting, and even picked up this nice Bream before calling it quits. Again it was a little DUO Toto which nailed it. What an awesome day!
