Trying to nut out a plan for The Gold Coast Flathead Classic. This is my first year at it so any advice you're happy to share in the comments would be appreciated ;) Good luck if you're fishing it. Make sure you come say g'day if you are.
For the best big Flathead footage you'll ever watch, get The Kayakers Guide - Giant Flathead in The Shallows Film
AVAILABLE HERE: selz.co/VkbDkj5zL
Join me for a mind blowing adventure into the shallows chasing Australia's most targeted estuary sports fish, the Dusky Flathead... But not just any Duskies, I'm revealing the GIANTS!
These are the LEGENDS OF THE FLATS, the class of fish that have their stories told and retold amongst families and fisherman forever.
In this DOWNLOADABLE VIDEO, I share some of the most exciting and effective approaches to hooking these beasts, in hope of helping you tune your own game to make these dream sized Duskies a reality!

wealthy launch owner wanders down off his gin palace: "You just chuck em out and wind them in, don't ya, there's no real [something, probably 'skill' or 'trick']...?" ; John (showing ultimate politeness): "there's some nuances to it...". Haha, you are a nice guy, mate. First cast soon after, bingo.

@fishhunter348 3 года назад

You're a nice bloke mate offering free advice to old mate and anyone else who will listen! I've seen you do the same in other vids and all the tips you give away on your channel! Most people aren't so generous and keep their cards close to their chest. Keep up the good work mate!

@mylurebox 3 года назад

Cheers mate. I get a lot out of sharing the experience and seeing blokes learn it and love it hey. Thanks for taking the time to share your support for my videos ;)

@MarciaCristina-bg9no 4 года назад

You should do a boat walk through mate, looks great for fishing.

@himderfella 4 года назад

Brilliant video. Packed with a wealth of information. The areas I fish are very weedy so I am very interested in weedless lures you use. I am not after monsters just a nice 40cm flattie will do. I'm really looking forward to any videos you can make while you compete in the Gold Coast Flathead Classic. I would expect your focus will be more on fishing than filming. Good luck.

John do you rate dobyn bait caster rods above other brands e.g shimano and been trying to buy 7-2 or 7-4 foot medium fast bait caster in N.S.Wales and no stocks them so where do you buy your rods from, love chasing big flats on sand, my biggest as been over 1metre, I fish brisbane waters on the central coast N.S.Wales

@killerslothgaming9568 4 года назад

What size tt snake lock jig head do you use for the zmans and where do you get them from

@RocketsFishingAdventures 4 года назад

Hey Killersloth Gaming - I can provide you with a bit of info on this question. If you head over to the Tackle Tactics (TT Lures) website you will find some great guides that provide all the recommended jig head / hook sizes for the different ZMan plastics. Here is a link to the weedless guide, and there is another one for standard jigheads too. tackletactics.com.au/Rigging-Guides/Selecting-a-TT-Lures-Weedless-Jighead-for-your-ZMan-Plastic Most tackle stores will have TT jigheads, but there is also search function on the TT website to locate your closest stockist. I hope this helps.

I run 12-20lb leader just to prevent saw offs from their teeth. 10lb main line is plenty I reckon.
