Swan flathead
Anybody found any flatties yet this year?
Re: Swan flathead
I've seen their lies but haven't targeted them yet.

Yep. Been getting a few as bycatch fishing for bream. Mostly further up river, and haven't tried the usual down river haunts yet. The last couple of weeks of warm weather should see them getting more active.

Re: Swan flathead
Got a nice one on the Como flats near the Jetty about a month ago when it first peaked 30C.
The next week was a bit rainy and the snot weed went nuts didn't even see one after that.
Snotweed=no fish in my experience.
