A great session. I took my boat up there last year. Planned 7 days fishing and had 6 days of bad weather. :-) Nice weather you had for the video.

g/day luke , i only have a 3.5 mtr tinny , 15 hp 4 stroke . i am new to plastics , any hints, advice as tides and spots to get a feed, cheers .

[@FishingBoatingExploring]

G'Day Mate - probably the easiest place to start with plastics is to fish drains and creek mouths for flathead etc. Just use a slow wind or a single hop retrieve. Slow down and dont rush and dont be scared to leave the lure resting on the bottom for a bit. I am a big believer in timing my fishing with tide changes. I usually fish those areas from an hour before low tide till an hour or two after. 👍

ok thanks , the weather looks good for sunday , low tide .1,50 pm
