Flathead and Whiting on Saltwater Yabbies - How to Catch Whiting and Flathead on Bait

Paul Chew gives us some tips for pumping saltwater yabbies, before breaking down how he rigs and fishes them for targeting two popular species, yellowfin whiting and flathead. This video also includes the mayhem of landing a solid flathead while fishing with Meg the Wonder Dog (loved and missed) and a little outtake that we found amusing and wanted to share. Love your work Chewy :) Fish on!

Your off sider needs a couple of lessons on how to behave in the boat. That was funny and good work on staying calm .

Sadly this was Megs last trip out in the boat.

Hi Paul i thought the 7ft4 lrf rod is full grip? i prefer the split can you confirm what size rod you are using thanks

[@OntheChew]

Hi mate. Sorry for the delayed response. Yea. I am using the gen 1 which had the split grip.

Got a good laugh out of that one Chewy

Great video and tips the deck got a bit out hand though😂😂😂

Thanks mate what a great video! I only fish land based with yabbies, also you have given me some inspiration when pulling in Flathead, I have lost 3 or 4 decent sized ones pulling the line in trying to fight… it’s only because it’s a fear of loosing a fish so you got to get it in asap

Hey @petejuchau9332, we're stoked to hear you enjoyed Paul's video, he's a great bloke and keen fisho. All the best with the land-based fishing. Yabbies are definitely one of the gun baits and we hope you land that big flathead soon. All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin
