Hi Bass
Yes Noosa QLD in Oz.
I spend 7h in a kayak (even troling clousers on sinking lines), not even a bite. Plenty people fishing from the shore and boats- nobody get any a part from small bream.

Regarding the fish from my foto. it is flathead, awsome fish, awsome fighter as well. Doesnt require deep water. you can get them wading estuaries and scrabbing bottom with clousers.

hi bass, its a marble trout a native fish for some continental Europe rivers /and their tributaries/ that flow to the Adriatic sea mainly in Slovenia and Italy.

Many years ago I fished the noosa estuary quite hard. One large flathead and a trevally of about 7lbs. Hmmm. Get yourself high up the noosa river and go camping with the kayak. It's a superb bass fishery.

The "fishing" on the other side of the estuary can be quite good. But no fish there either.

Cheers Paul

I think I will stick to Gold Coast, water is the same(apparently all ovrfished) and its colser.
I went yesterday to catch my self e dinner. one fish in the morning and then nothing.

...but before I had my fish for dinner Ive been eaten alive for.breakfast. It was my first experience with fucking sand flies- wasnt nice, and I looked like after chickenpoks attack. Need to het ready b4 next trip.

Nice one Mike

Hi Michal,

Lovely.

Whereabouts did you catch 'em?

Nice to see quite a humble Lamson punching above it's weight! I'm a big fan!

Cheers,

Bass

Well done Mike.
Now you must catch it's Mummy or Daddy.

Cheers guys
It was in Gold coast seeway. What happen was we dropped the T14 with heavy fly, and wr drifted. once we were in the hot spot( on top of the pipe where the fish are) start striping. man the strike was like hitting rhe train at least for me.

Mommy or Daddy, I would have to be strapp to something with 12wt in my hand.
10wt is already in the shopping basket.

cheers
