    Noting the nuclear chicken (2nd from left) performed the best (i.e. caught the most fish overall). However all the KGW's were caught on the chartreuse grub (far right in the photo). And the salmon were all on fly in a few feet of water, mostly around dusk, stripping very fast. Salmon trout like the fly moving.

    Hi Crusher,All fish were caught on fly or soft plastics using 1/4 and 3/8 oz jigs.I've attached a photo of the most successful flies and soft plastics.On the retrieve I Iet the jig reach the bottom then three quick twitches and let the bait flutter back to the bottom. Keeping up with the slack, the fish typically took on the drop.

    Hi guys,Late follow up, but I ended up having a pretty successful weekend. Probably a half dozen salmon trout on the fly and about the same number of small flathead also on a fly wading in very shallow water. A bit further out in the yak, right along the weed line (which you can see distinctly in piratepom's photo), it was too deep for a fly, but caught 3 nice king george whiting between 40 and 50 cm and a dozen keeper flathead, the largest was almost 55cm - caught them on soft plastics bouncing them on the bottom up to the weed bed, then sped up the retrieve and swam them just above the we

    Thanks. Really looking forward to it. I've been told it's a beautiful spot to camp. I trust the real big fish will keep to themselves.

    Hi folks,I'm a recent migrant to South Australia from Austin Texas. I primarily fly fish and lure fish from my kayak. My wife and I are spending a few days in Pt Lincoln NP after Christmas, specifically at Memory Cove. Does anyone have any advice about this area? Is it worth fishing? Any hope of catching anything, Flathead, Snook, Salmon trout in Memory Cove? If so I expect soft plastics are the best bet, correct? I'd be grateful for any comments.Best regards,jt
