Two metre-plus mulloway on lures, on my birthday — and I genuinely didn’t expect the session to unfold like this. This episode is all about mulloway fishing, metre mulloway and real Australian fishing, with both big fish coming on lures during one unforgettable estuary fishing session.
What started as a birthday trip quickly turned into one of those days that reminds you why you keep going back. I spend the session working through lure fishing decisions, reading the conditions, changing approach when needed and staying alert to what the fish are telling me. There’s also some flathead action along the way, but the real story is the two metre-plus mulloway and how the session came together.
If you enjoy mulloway fishing, there’s plenty here beyond the captures themselves. I talk through the choices behind the casts, lure selection, presentation and the little adjustments that matter when you’re fishing for mulloway in an estuary. Catching mulloway consistently is rarely about one magic lure or one magic spot — it’s about learning to read the water, understand the conditions and build confidence through time on the water.
Both metre mulloway were taken on lures, making this a proper mulloway on lures session from start to finish. For anyone into lure fishing, soft plastics, fishing lures and practical Australian fishing, this one should give you plenty to take away and apply to your own sessions.
There’s also a good look at flathead fishing during the session, including how I approach changing water, lure choice and where I expect fish to sit. That mix of flathead and mulloway is a big part of why I enjoy estuary fishing so much — the conditions can change quickly, and so can the opportunities.
