    hey mate,
    caught a few on atomic cranks ,use them over the shallow flats on the top of tide and just slow roll them in with a few pauses.cast them along the banks coz the flatties will usually be sitting up close to the bank.

    Flathead love all lures, so yes Hard Bodies work on Lizards. Make sure you are Fishing good territory, with a lure that has a lot of action. And make sure you are using the right technique for the right action, which action/technique are you currently experimenting with?

    any of the blades are good for 'em. I've got quite a few lately on small silvery blades with the bonus of bream and whiting as regular by catch. Just a slow steady retrieve works fine for me.

    Blades are excellent (they are on the bottom 100% of the time) but in cranks all my larger bream lures have caught flatties, sx40's etc BUT........they seem to love the wobble of the larger fat cranks and our number one has been the Ecogear CK40 over the top of deeper weedbeds just off the flats.

    i only use sx40's and crankbaits found they work the best in my area on flatty's plus you cover more water.

    I found out yesterday that the SX40 gets stuck into my shirt much easier than it gets stuck into the mouth of a lizard!
