Swan river flathead
Submitted by lachieH on Tue, 2014-02-04 17:04
Hi everyone. I am going flathead fishing in bicton on Saturday. I have read the bicton baths fishing map thread but would like to know some specific lures and techniques. I will be using size 1/24 or 1/16 jigheads and will need some soft plastics used for catching flathead.
please send through some helpful information because I have never been flathead fishing before.

could go heavier on the jigheads, dont need to be particularly light for flatties. Z-mans grubs are the go if you insist on placcies, but they will still get destroyed if the blowies are around. White lead-head jigs (maribou jigs) work well, and don't get smashed by blowies, and are also cheap. And yeh check the search tool, heaps of info. Flathead are greedy bastards and will take almost anything that comes close enough.
