Re: Tweed River?
I grew up near there and a really good mate lives and fishes there all the time. He's more into lure fishing, but reckons you can't go past yabbies and sand worms for flatties and whiting.Sam Ogden wrote:hey guys,

Cheers, Scott.

Re: Tweed River?
Assuming it fishes in a similar way to the rivers nearby, any soft plastic with some action will be successful for flatties. Wait for it to hit the bottom, lift, wind a bit, hit the bottom, lift wind a bit etc etc. They grab it on the drop so lift fairly hard and set the hook.
