[@philh2861]

great video, picked up some good pointers

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Great to hear Phil, thanks for watching!

[@michaelfoster1185]

Hey Jayson, one question what's your go to knot for your braid to fc leader? Thanks for the video too most appreciated as always.

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

If you ask anyone, they will all have their own preferences. I personally always tie an FG before the session, but if I lose a leader and get too lazy I might tie a double uni instead. They're easy and pretty strong, but tend to not cast as well. FG is my knot of choice though.

[@Pullyaheadin92]

Cheers for the pointers mate 👍oh and I got done by a cobbler on my ankle haha it sucked!

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

😂 bet it did! Thanks for watching Mitch

[@reptileaustralia242]

Walk out far enough to cast back to shore. 12,3,6,9,12. 10 casts each direction. Hard bodied minnow slow retrieval. Usually hook up on 7th to 8th cast. Full circle then move repeat.

[@nicoloscarpa9683]

Love the video,I am keen to buy some soft plastics for flatties, what do you think will work and in what color in the swan?

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Swan flatties aren't particularly fussy, but colours that stand out in water like white will ensure they can see your lure more easily.

[@nicoloscarpa9683]

I wanted to but a Daiwa infeet rod but I need to decide between the 20 z one or the cheaper one ,I am getting a nice quality rod so it can last a few years without any problem?should I buy the 20 z that cost a bit more and has more resistance?

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

The cheaper range represents excellent value for money, but there is no doubt that the Z series are nicer rods. Really depends on your style of fishing and how much you are willing to spend.

[@nathanramage5583]

What sort of price are you looking at for the rock hopper boots?

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

The adrenaline ones we have in at the moment are $99

[@jaydenelisarow8860]

I’d just go get some Dunlop volleys

[@nathanramage5583]

@@compleatanglernedlands4318 do you still have these in stock

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Yep sure do

[@Kidndjwkx]

Hey, thanks for the info on flattys, how should I work my rigge 70sp shallow on the flats aswell as the khamsin jr and tiny, thanks

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

The best thing about these lures is that they can be both slow rolled and twitched across the flats. Twitch and pause is generally the most successful

[@Kidndjwkx]

Thanks 🙏

[@noelandrews7509]

Oh shit this is a local video. I'm def coming down for a chat and purchase

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Great to hear Noel!

[@stevegray4012]

Great job mate

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Thanks Steve!

[@tightlines106]

Just checked ya website not bad but could have more flathead lures

[@Mikefish232]

Hey guys, what time of the year is the best for flatties? cheers Mike

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Hi Mike, summer is generally the best time of year for Swan River flatties, with high water temperatures making the fish active in the shallows.

[@nicoloscarpa9683]

What reels are the best under 200bucks?

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

Shimano Nasci reels are a very good option for light tackle fishing at that price point.

[@jackgibson8627]

noooo why did you tell them about the claremont spots (was happy when everyone sat on the jetty catching bloweys and i got out on the flats )

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

We thought everyone knew about it already...👀

[@thataustralian4078]

never no that we even have that many flathead in wa 😂😂😂

[@compleatanglernedlands4318]

This season their numbers have exploded in the Swan River!
