T11 is the green channel light on the StKilda side of the Channel opposite the Gellibrand shoal marker which is on the Willi side. You cant fish on the green channel marker so outside the yellow lights if that makes sense.

Look on the Navionics web app and it labels the shipping markers .

Amused that flathead are considered pests, I think there was a hint of sarcasm?

Frequently hit patches of sub 15cm flatties in 10+m. Means off the mark and time to find another spot.

Might brave the weather tonight and wet a line... will see how it goes

Yep, know that too well. Legal size are dinner, undersized ones are pests, especially as I seem to get spiked more often by the undersized ones than the legals, even ironic, as those are the ones that get the dinner reprieve.

Good luck if you do get out tonite

Cheers, Bug-ouchie

If you're chasing snapper and they're about, these piddly frogs won't be an issue. If they are an issue, there are no snapper there and it's time to move to another area. Snapper eat flathead.

So you telling if I catch flat head and use as bait it would the best bait ever?

Dunno about flatties, I'd just keep them for a feed but I have seen people consistently catch big snapper using trevally fillets.

Flathead fillets work.

Flathead fillets work.

Wouldn't have though that, could be worth a try next time I catch a couple.
