What a session! 🎣 Every single flathead we hooked started off very small but as the day went on they just kept getting bigger and bigger — one of those magic days where everything goes right. The tide, the bite, the lure choice — all lined up perfectly!
We hit the estuary armed with soft plastics, light spin gear, and a heap of energy, and the flathead were on the chew from the very first cast. Watching these fish crush the plastics in shallow water never gets old — it’s what fishing is all about!
In this video we cover:
👉 How to cast and work soft plastics for flathead
👉 The best lure colors and sizes for estuary conditions
👉 How to read the tide and structure to find feeding fish
👉 Our go-to setup for light tackle estuary sessions (2–4kg rod, 2500 reel, 8lb leader)
This one’s packed with action, tips, and pure fishing stoke. Whether you’re chasing your first flatty or looking for that next PB, this session will fire you up to hit the water!
