Flats fishing part 4

Well what can I say! The picture tells the tale. I decided to take a morning off from work and show Dad how we go about flats fishing in Townsville. With the normal start in the morning and a nice falling tide. We worked our usual areas but for no fish, not even a touch! Work was looking good!

Anyway, we moved back to the flats and starting looking and waiting. Finally after about 2 hours we found the fish! With this particular school of tarpon we followed them for about 2 hours working the school and looking for it as it moved over the flats. During this period we managed to stay connected to the school for multiple hook ups including a nice queenfish. Yes we were very happy!
