Indented Heads First time there

[matt1991]

Hey guys,

Heading to indented heads tomorrow for the first time and will be hiring a boat with a mate and targeting squid and possible pinkies/flathead. Usually fish St leonards with good results.

Any tips or things to look out for when fishing at Indented heads would be great! Also get to test out my new rod and reel since having shoulder surgery which should be awesome!!!

Will document how we go

Never fished there myself Matt but was actually talking to a surfer mate of mine the other day and he suggested giving a crack. Be really interested to hear how you go - good luck out there mate.

Its quite shallow and a great squid area look up grassy point turn left head towards portarlington asyou come towards the tip of the bellarine there is a red stick about 500 mt out drift around there always good for squid. Drifting anywhere between indented head and st lenoards is worthwhile its an out going tide in the morning so I would head towards grassy point . Look up prince george bank its about 3k off indented head great drop off plenty of burley you won't be disappointed

So my mate and I left home around 6.10am. The traffic wasn't to bad heading into Geelong and after a quick coffee stop we arrived at Indented Heads at around 8am. On the way there the rain started to kick in as we headed through Clifton Springs. My first thought was "of course it had to rain on my RDO" but that wasn't going to stop us!

After speaking with the Hire Boat owner who by the way was a great bloke and i highly recommend him to anyone, we were in the water by 8.45am. The rain was on an off until around 11am but it was only drizzle and a light shower which wasn't to bad.

By 12.30pm we landed 12 calamari and then headed out to drift for some Flathead. We ended up with 10 Flathead by 3pm and then relaxed out on the water for 20min as a pod of Dolphins swam around playing near by. Largest squid had a 27cm hood and largest flathead was 35cm.

Red foils and Dave Austins Blood Demon done the damage landing 8 between them.

Landed majority of the calamari at Grassy Point thanks to Nude Up and the Flathead in around 10 to 13 metres of water. The water was like glass!!!

Ended the night with Beer Battered and Salt and Pepper calamari with a glass of wine! Flathead Fillets tonight sound good!
