Yesterday at 7:30am my mate Vincent and I launched his electric outboard powered canoe into Mobs Bay and began the pottering trip around the Bay. We casted our lures, both soft plastics and hard bodies to the edges of the mangroves, in hope of catching some bream and flathead.
After several missed fish, we had each landed 3 flathead to 40cm and Vincent several small tailor, we decided to pack up and we were off the water by 2pm.
Getting the rods and lure boxes organised for an afternoon bass session, Dad and I made our way down to Tintenbar to fish from the banks.
The first spot we went to didn’t produce any fish or strikes so we decided to move to the other side of the bank, but further downstream at the end of Crosby’s Lane.
After changing from a jitterbug to the ever productive Atomic Hardz shad, on which I landed a small 26cm bass which had some severe caudal and pectoral fin damage. On the 3rd cast I hooked up to a fish that fought fairly well and I hauled it up on the bank for a measure and photo, going 33cm and extremely well conditioned.
So flathead in the morning and bass in the afternoon, what a great day!
