That last flatty in those pics might have survived.

Iv'e caught a flatty in lake tyers missing his tail. Again, plenty of big tailor in tyers :D

caught a couple of "stumpy's" on lures, where the scales and skin have actually grown over the injury with 2 or 3 inches of the fishes tail section missing. they lose no swimming ability due to their snake like profile.

An example of a small St Georges basin tailor. Probably average for you blokes who can get them from Kalbarri but still decent.

Its a 3 inch Riptide Mullet - Rootbeer colour. We were chasing big flatties on the basin and it was all I had close when we found birds working a bait school from above and fish smashing them from below. Cranked it hard near the school of bait and then the tailor hit it at the boat when I stopped winding.
