i took three of them early saturday to tinnebarna, car pact night before, quick breakfast and 2 hour later we were on the beach.yeah boys back in town replied my son ,the way he said was so funny. anyway first 2 hour was compliatly nothing not even bite and then suddenly fish start to coming up.
first me son who is seven years age , catch biggest flounder as ever seen.it was huge i guess over 40 cm and i was right it come up 41 cm.he was delighted so am i and his younger brother and my princess. :D
iwas start to catch couple of whitining and rocling nothing big ,how ever me son keep catching good size dab and flounder and make me think why he catch bigger flat fish and i keep catching small one , could fiqure out why....
watch him cople of minutes and the reason was he wasnt casting so far could easly say max 20 meters, i did exatly the same distance and guess what i catched the desent dab too. it wasnt big as me son one but still it was biggest fish 4 me all day .have fire eat lunch , burger and soup , keep fishing until dark,
i was suprize the size of flonders but i wasnt complein about it of course...
while me doughter and my youngest were sleeping in the tent we keep fishing until 8 ish i think, then back up and return home.
All over it was one of the best session so far ,different species, all kind of size and most importand kids were happy.
See you until next time....
Have a good one

Cracking flounders there. Fair play on getting the little lads out fishing. Love that beach too. Always pick up something there.

"car pact night before," I gave up packing the car the night before after some &*%$* busted a lock ( and fixing that didn't come cheap)and stole all my fly fishing gear a few years ago. That apart, nice fish and nice pics!

What a great day for everybody and a great post! I spoke to you coming and on going by which time you were getting fish. I thought I had done well with a 34cm flounder as best fish. It is true that most of the fish were only 20 to 30 yards out. The chicken is a novel bait, have you been using it for a long time?

My wife is on the way home and I told her that you had posted great pictures. She is dying to see them as she was worried that the "we mites would be frozen"

Well done! :D

Hi again , yeah off course i remember you and your wife,after you pass us my son keep asking me when we gonna get jeep like your one, i told him when i stop fishing i maybe get one :P :D , couse fishing cost money and if you like have a jeep have to quit fishing , what do you think :D :D , he said thats ok when i grove up I 'll get jeep for you .... :D
And yes man i use chiken breast o lot, one of my mate hate to see chiken breast in me bait box however its work and belive or not so popular bait for mediterenian sea.
Any way tell lady hi from us ,wish my wife could come with us, ohhhm change me mind 8) 8) maybe not. Oh before i forgot, after you, one more angler pass us and walked close enough you i belive, is fishing better that side of the beach and was it deeper water over there couse i saw couple of times people walk that far but with 3 kids no way for me however if pruduce better fish i have no problem to walk there too.
See you around
Have a good one...

great fishing lads lovely flounder. i have expiremented with different meats as baits .i have caught fish on raw chicken [they use it in the states quiet a bit] stripe bass love it :lol: have also had doggies on lambs liver soaked in squid oil [left in a jar over night] pork fat [grilled first] sends out a good scent also.when you have no bait you try anything you can get your hands on .if the fish are there and feeding they will also try any thing :lol:
