Best video I’ve seen in ages I have had so much struggle fishing for flathead this has given me a whole new direction I’ve only been fishing for about 7 months and hooked 👍 I fish in Jacob’s well qld if you have ever fished there would like to know what your plan off attack was or would be

@tackletacticstv7687 5 ай бұрын

Hey @nathanmitchell9243, we're stoked that you enjoyed the vid and awesome to hear that you're on the plastics. Are you land-based fishing Jacob's Well? I would look for deep edges on the higher stages of the tide and fish ZMan 3" MinnowZ on 3/8oz 3/0 HeadlockZ HD jigheads, or wade along the front of mangrove edges in shallower water fishing a 1/4oz 3/0. Otherwise the prime stages of the tide are the last of the run out and start of the run in, walking the channel edges and focussing on drains, weed edges and areas holding bait. I would go the 1/4oz again, unless the water is 3m plus or the current pumping, then go 3/8oz. Grab the Electric Chicken for the lower stages of the tide when the water is dirty, and Opening Night for the higher stages of the tide if the water is clean. Mix up your retrieve and over time you will start to crack some patterns. Hope you get stuck into a few soon. Cheers, Justin

Man what a an awesome job you've got. Do you use a lure scent at all?

@tackletacticstv7687 Ай бұрын

Hey @robwalker2217, Thankfully not too many donuts or the job would be pretty tough ;) Hope all's well and you're finding a fish. Absolutely love scent, especially if the bite is tough, and I have had times when the bites are timid or not happening, add scent and fish on! Over the years I have tried every scent out there and my go-to is Pro-Cure Super Gel as it combines science (powerful amino acids, bite stimulants, UV enhancements) and real ground bait, sticks on well and it works - tackletactics.com.au/Pro-Cure. I will apply a little either side of the head of the lure and smear it right down to the tail, applying every 30 or so casts. Being gel based it stays on well, so a tube lasts for ages. My go-to flavours are Mullet and Pilchard... but there are a heap of flavours available to match your target species and the presentation that you are using. All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin

@tackletacticstv7687 6 ай бұрын

Hey @leewood509, We have a comprehensive range of tools available that you can view at - tackletactics.com.au/TT-Fishing/TT-Fishing-Tools. These can be ordered from your local tackle store using the part number on the website or you will also find some stores stocking them in-store or online. All the best with the fishing.

Bag looked awkward

@tackletacticstv7687 6 ай бұрын

Hey @antonb8422, The bag is a ripper... I think the angler (me) is a bit awkward ;) Loads of these bags have gone out and people are loving them. We have had great feedback from people all over the country, fresh and salt, so I'll take the hit on the awkward part ;). All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin
