MONSTER FORSTER FLATHEAD! with Catch & Cook.

Spent the past few sunny spring days fishing the oyster leases and bars around Forster-Tuncurry with my close friend Dave Davo, we had our fair share of close encounters with David managing to Hook a trophy Flathead, BUT unfortunately falling short on the land! ...SO.. let the search continue!!

On splits as well use the Berkeley hollow belly eyes man do the z man lures pop big time .😂

very underrated content mate! the subs will come no doubt about it👍

[@LostFishingAus]

I really appreciate that bro 👍🏼 I’m just trying to figure out if I should keep the name ahhah

[@LightTackleAnglerWA]

@@LostFishingAus aha I get what you mean - its almost a great name, I feel like the fact it doesn't actually make sense just makes it more memorable aha. IMO the actual reason people haven't fully cottoned on to how good your stuff is is that you move around and therefore don't have a target base who immediately say 'yep that's for me' like, for example my vids and people who live in Perth. That being said, you honestly have the ability to reach a wide audience with your stuff rather than needing to keep it focused, just takes longer to build up that widespread appeal. Basically comes down to personality/confidence in the end and you have a good personality in front of camera. Although in the end who cares, I just use youtube as an excuse to buy more fishing gear aha

@@LightTackleAnglerWA And that's just it man, I'm going to be in transit for some time and it's just a part of that search, I've got a trip coming soon to Tasmania and its exciting but a lot of crew aren't going to relate to every area I'm going to be fishing, but its also a big experience and learning curve to look back on!

[@LightTackleAnglerWA]

@@LostFishingAus 100%, and catching good fish beats having a few extra subs any day of the week, sounds bloody exciting

[@sam.willis]

Not bad he reckons.. Thing was huge

[@LostFishingAus]

And that's the thing man! we had spooked so many trophy flathead over the course of a few days that it almost didn't cause for celebration, but how many times I've been out and wished to catch a flatty that size and have came up short

[@dominicxavier1954]

[@LostFishingAus]

we are going to have to try something mate! because the 60's models that we had caught would ingulf a 7" plastic, so I could only imagine a Big girl! it would be CRAZY

[@brettellis1837]

@@LostFishingAus coin Island heap of meter fish bait is off the chart and big bream herring schools are massive.

[@brettellis1837]

@@LostFishingAus I did try wingman swiss lures detail off the chart 230mm big girls never looked at on 17.00 bucks just for one 100mm was a pass from them as well.
