First time fishing the Noosa river. Picked up a few quality Flathead over a few days with many more smaller ones caught in between. Subscribe for more!
I recently went on a school camp at South Stradbroke Island and we were allowed to bring our fishing gear. Every minute of free time I spent fishing, and I even woke up super early in the morning to go out fishing. I was shocked at how big the flathead were there. I got busted off about 7 times by really big flathead on that camp, and it was on 6lb line as well. I wound in a big close to 70cm flathead and about 5 metres from me the knot came undone and my heart shattered. That happened about 7 times, but at varying size and I hooked an absolute monster that ran me about 30 metres right into the deep water before the knot broke. I also really hope those flathead are ok, I'm sure they will be. I did manage to land a 60cm, 50cm and a 30cm though, so I did catch some but yeah, relatable about those flathead.
Hey mate sorry for the late reply! I was using the ghost perch colour for the double clutch and the larger one i use was the ghost wakasgai. Hope this helps! and thanks for subscribing.
What pound leader do u use? I hooked a massive flatty at Noosa as well. (In the spot where you got spiked) We had the flatty on the edge of the water/sand and a wave came and she unhooked herself and got away. No pics, No measurement and now no body believes me at school… 😩
I would normally just do the gob grab on any fish up to 50cm. But those bigger ones have pretty big teeth and I’ve heard of people getting pretty messed up haha. I also didn’t expect to get one that big so I didn’t bring the grips for them.
Eckie Fleckie I got lucky and was hooking up within maybe 30 minutes of casting in a new spot. But it’s different every day depending on the mood of the fish.
Hey mate, first location is in the stretch of river opposite noosa sound, can see las rias hotel in the back ground. Second location is the island across from gympie terrace at noosaville. People that don’t share spots are fuck wits, Noosa river is hardly a secret spot
@@SuperLodj Those bigger ones have got teeth. I tried to wrap my shirt around my fingers to grab the mouth but wasn't quick enough before the line snapped. And the hand is completely fine now!

Yeah mate sucks when you loose those big ones! I'm sure they will shake the hooks though.. and someone will get a free double clutch!
@@johnrepar5068 bit silly to use 6lb for flathead apart from being expensive ( Lost Lures ) not good for the fishery
Great video, nice flatties. Were they all caught early morning? And what was the tide doing, rising or falling?
All the bigger ones where caught early morning. And the tide was falling. Cheers for the comment!
What colour double clutches did you use in this video? Also I just subscribed

Hi John
Heading up from Adelaide, thinking about buying a rod and throwing a line. Are you able to help me out where to go?
Are you up near Tewantin there mate?

Cool video
Where is that in Noosa you where fishing for those flatheads ?

nah mate not really
Cool
very
What time in the morning and what lure did you use
Hey mate apologies for the late reply! It was around 6am and i was using a double clutch. Hope this helps!
Thanks
How long does it take to hook one here, mate?
Eckie Fleckie I got lucky and was hooking up within maybe 30 minutes of casting in a new spot. But it’s different every day depending on the mood of the fish.
Thanks mate, I’m going there next weekend so was just wondering
When is the Merch coming out?
Soon Samuel, soon
How do you manage to loose them like that, that’s annoying to watch
hey mate. Can you share the location?
Sorry man i don't share locations. Put in some time around the river and I'm sure you will find some good spots 👌
Hey mate, first location is in the stretch of river opposite noosa sound, can see las rias hotel in the back ground. Second location is the island across from gympie terrace at noosaville. People that don’t share spots are fuck wits, Noosa river is hardly a secret spot
@@elliotmartin650 you dropped this king 👑
good job, couple a lessons there....cuts loosing over-priced double-c's
Yeah man, gotta learn and make sure you don't make the same mistakes!
hey u good
Salamander Man yeah mate. But are you good????
@@johnrepar5068 My hands got shredded last time I was on straddie, all the fish spines and PiPi shards. Hows your hand.
Wait a sec why didnt you just grab them by the mouth
@@SuperLodj Those bigger ones have got teeth. I tried to wrap my shirt around my fingers to grab the mouth but wasn't quick enough before the line snapped. And the hand is completely fine now!
Great video but mate you need to learn to DRAG the Flathead up onto the beach otherwise you'll be losing a LOT more of them.
Paul Janek Yeah it was difficult with the 6lb line and the angle of the bank. I’ll bring a net or grips next time
Great fishing guys but some of the worst landings I've seen.😁👍
Paul Dellevergini nah mate, I reckon my landing skills are world class
so hard to watch
Roddy Mawn sick input brah
There goes $60 worth of double clutches you drop kick
That’s not the right spirit bro.
