Our favourite lures for catching dusky flathead within estuaries. This is an opinion and is completely fine if you disagree, this is the 5 lures we would recommend people trying if they wanted to start lure lure fishing for flathead.
My fav youtuber 😍😍😍 the best Phillip island has ❤
My favourite one for massive ones is the Mmd whiting glide 180 in sand
Think we made this just as the start of the glide bait craze begun. Glide baits absolutely slay the big flathead.
Ive had luck with the Squidgy fish lures. I dont think they make my favourite colour anymore which was a light brown .
Force 10 shallow diving bug. 🤺
holtbait swimprawn uv motor oil
Zman 3inch slimswimz
Slim swimz are bloody good 👌
What would be your best flatly lure for around weeds & other top surface lures
Around weed I love using a weedless rigged un weighted soft plastic like 5 inch or bigger paddle tail. Will be in the next video that gets posted.
Other surface lures would be big sugar pen or crossfire.
I’m brand new with the hardbody’s do u use a sinker
No don't need a sinker just tie to the lure and the bib makes it go down the water column while you wind it in
Jackle
I catch 4m flattus
Hackle chibitrel
Don’t forget the soft vibes work a treat too
Yes they do probably should've grouped them in with the other vibes. Great lures to use for beginners since don't have to do much to get the action on the lure :)
I love catching flathead on with surface lures. I use the Duo Realis Pencil 130. Killer on the big crocs
Yeah surface is always so much fun. Nice we will have a look into them, can't have too many lures haha
Thanks for the informative video mate.
Thank you so much… just caught my new pb of 81cm!!!
Nothing beats the Tazzie devil hard body for flattys all I used growing up
Wow that's a new one I have heard. Will have to give that a crack
Pro Lures for deep, Double Clutches for Shallow, Splash Prawns for surface and Soft Plastics (I like ZMan) when the depth is variable.
Those splash prawns look so good might have to order a few for when us Vic's can travel again for fishing 😁🤞
Chasing Fish they are really good. Great for bream and they worked well on bass. MMD also produce soft prawns. A bit small to be a gun flathead lure but they are the bomb on bream. Out-fish my eco-gears and cranka crabs and that’s not easy to do.
Defiantly recommend the “Jackson bottom magic hard body” hooks tend to straighten out in the bigger fish though
Oooo cool looking lures, haven't seen them before either so cheers for the suggestion. Do you switch trebles on them at all or just keep the singles?
Chasing Fish I chuck on assist hooks on the back and take off the middle double hooks usually ! Iv also chucked on a x2 owner treble and cut off one of the hooks with pliers and works just as fine (if that makes sense)
That Intro is low key sick
My favourite lure is the atomic crank 38 i caught alot of flathead on it andbi even caught my biggest flathead
My favrorite lure is 3 inch minnowz and the aromic crankbait i caught my biggest flathead and heaps of flathead on both of them
Yeah both are great lures, caught plenty of flathead on both too. They do love a crank on the flats 👌
Mine would be a Zman Motor oil. Soft plastic. 3, inch
They are a fantastic and versatile lure thats for sure, definitely one of my favourite paddle tail soft plastics
@@ChasingFish I caught 23 flathead on one lure. Within an hour. All averaging about 40 to 50 cm
@@ChasingFish also do U know any good places for flatty in Victoria. I'm stuck here 😐
@@tntbossthrone1062 yeah thats were we are from, all estuaries along east Gippsland are best for dusky flathead. Lake tyers right through up to mallacoota are the prime spots.
@@ChasingFish thanks
Ima beginner and my dad and we just don’t catch anything I hope this help us😃
Keep trying and you'll get em I'm sure
if you got something worth biting the fish will find you
The mumroes clear speckle paddle tail has caught me countless flatty on the flats
The Munroes are fantastic 👌 have caught a few nice flatties on them 😊
Do you have any tips on choosing a colour of soft plastic for flathead?The water I fish in is clear blue water and is about 3 metres.I was looking at the baby bass colour and wakasagi from the baitjunkie 3.2 inch minnow, would that be good?
Yeah they would be great for the clear water. We find they don't mind bright colours either like pink, if water is dirty we love the motor oil though since down here in Vic a lot of the water is dirty most of the time
How do you find the slams vs the dunks . I have both, but haven't tried the slams yet , been using dunks for years and generally tie them on . It's a confidence thing lol
Honestly love them, and for the price I've been preferring to buy the slams. But totally understand with the confidence thing haha often takes me until I catch first fish on a lure to believe it actually works. After using a lot of hurricane lures recently they are becoming my favourite brand of lure to use just seem to catch fish. Well worth a crack but ya can't go wrong with the dunks, ripper lures for so many types of fishing
@@ChasingFish I have been using the power dunks on snapper for 5-6 years. They absolutely kick ass on shallow water snapper. The price of the slams is hard to beat . Maybe next trip I will leave the dunks at home.
Gold bomber lures from the troll or casting work great on flatty
Have heard they are quite good for a lot of species, will have to give it a try 😁
Chasing Fish I find the gold bomber in both the 89mm and 119mm great in dirty water or over weedbeds but my go to is the 89mm silver version. Great lures
i just got a double-clutch for chrissy
Ripper lure, should catch a heap 😁
@@ChasingFish are they good for bream and flathead?
@@callangaming1234 yeah fantastic for both
I had a jerk bait lure in my tackle box that hole time
I love chasing the big girls... My personal favourites
Atomic slim twitchers 125mm 145mm in silver wolf, muddy prawn, pilchard and silver glitter
Duo realis tide minnow 125-sinking
Chartreuse yellow colour
P.S Upgrade the hooks straight away as they will get destroyed if you hook a bigger model fish
Zman 5" curly tails, 3" minnowz
Bassday sugapens 120mm C264, HF119, C394.
Keep in mind these are my go to lures and won't work for everybody just need to find the good spots and keep persisting
Definitely going to be getting some of the slim twitchers and pretty confident they'll become a favourite haha Will look at a few duo lures too since a few people are suggesting them. Hopefully those lures can feature in some big flatty videos for us in the future haha
@@ChasingFish I love the slim twitchers mate. The tide minnow 125 sinking is 15.5g and they are like 34$ a pop so I wouldn't be throwing them on anything lighter than 12lb leader
