Great video where’s this??? I live on Gold Coast and am hoping to go fishing here as I have never caught a flat head. What tide would you fish here and what lure? Thanks

Awesome session mate. I’ve been struggling to get good numbers too. The fish seem to evade me lately lol. I noticed you strike really really hard hey!!

Flathead fishing has been so slow recently. Always gotta make sure that hook is set, I generally think of it like if it’s a big fish there’s a chance the hook goes in the top of the jaw which is the hardest part of their mouth, so a big hookset generally secures the hook better👌🏽🎣

Thanks good vid but the NOISE!!!

Nice vid and set up bro . Can I ask , where abouts at the Pin you are when you have sand bar either side of the boat and theres what looks like a creek at 7:44 and 8:20 please ? I live on North Stradbroke but I dont have a boat and that looks great off the shore in that area . I have a Hobie Kayak so I could possibly get in there , it looks like a good sheltered bay . I google earthed around there but I can only see Swan Bay ? A tip I have had a lot better results on Flathead especially in winter if I get non wind affected flat water close to the shore , even if i can find it flat water on a windy day , they seem to be in there more .I think it is because the 'Poddy Mullet' also like it and the wind ruffles the water so it stops the sand from warming up as much . I got a 94cm on a 6" ZMans 'Day and Night ' Paddle Tail , released down the Pin , my girl got a 87cm just before me on 5 inch . If I chase bigger flathead I use bigger lures 5 inch minimum . An amazing lure for Flathead, whiting is the 'Double Clutch' Hard Bodies small size if you want whiting and bream as well .They are expensive but worth it .They cast a mile and have a great action . Another tip..the slightest nick in your line will normally halve the breaking strain. I use 12lb- 20lb leader , big fish 20lb ..Always check and change leader after every fish mate . Might be your PB ..dont risk it :). Thx in advance

That spot there is known as the lagoon, on the maps there’s 2 bays besides each other, one is next to the bar and then there’s one before it, the lagoon is the one before, quite a well know spot, both bays are just opposite from the surf

What size reel do you use mate? I'm coming up your way in a week and can't wait to get out on the Broadwater for a flick
