Join Justin Willmer on the water as he steps through fishing a dropping tide with finesse soft plastics, starting around the mangrove edges, dropping out onto the flats, then into a drain and finally onto the channel edges, targeting bream and flathead. Fish on!

Always looks so easy when you guys do it. When fishing a mangrove edge/flat like in the video for bream etc, should I let the boat drift with the current and cast ahead of the drift or use the electric to push into the current and bring the lure back with the current? I have no trouble catching flatties but can't get into any bream Cheers for the help

Hey @zac2817, I will start a cast distance from the mangroves and am happy to drift, casting ahead of the drift, if the drift is tracking pretty straight along the mangroves. If there is a breeze that messes with the drift angle then working along the mangroves with the electric is a great option, casting ahead of the direction of travel and working the lure back with the flow. Bream can spook easy, so I think a long cast is key, spray your casts around the boat a bit, keep an eye out for key structure, sand patches in the weed or bait and cast to these. Another key is to mix up the retrieve... some days the bream want the presentation moving pretty quick, while other days they want it slower or with pauses. Once you start to catch a few it will come together and you will catch more and more. Nice work on the flatties too. All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin

Hi Justin, what is the make and model of the boat you are using? Thanks

@tackletacticstv7687 2 ай бұрын

Hey @thedon9670, It was time to retire the old Quintrex 435 Hornet Trophy and 35hp motor after 23 years and we needed something a little bigger, so opted for a Quintrex 481 Hornet Pro, with a 115hp Yamaha, dropped a couple of sounders on and moved the electric motor batteries to the back to balance it up better. I wouldn't recommend it as an offshore boat, but definitely a great platform for inshore waters, rivers and impoundments, which is my favourite fishing. You just need to have a mate with an offshore rig as well ;). All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin

Isn’t it hard to fish in wintet

@tackletacticstv7687 2 ай бұрын

Hey @fish4life.877, Hope all's well and you're finding a fish. Seasonal fishing will vary based on where you are in the world. Australia's east coast often fishes well in winter, with an influx of bait and a mix of species. Where I am based in South East Queensland, winter often bring with it more stables weather conditions, an influx of bait and some great fishing. Depending on where you are based it's worth doing some research in terms of how your target species changes in winter, where in the systems they will be located and what techniques they will respond to. All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin
