    Default Sight Fishing for Bream!!

    How cool is it!!

    Went for a little mission to the East Coast with a work colleague - Shannan, who was keen to land his first Bream on plastics

    We came to a spot where we literally saw easily 100 Bream cruising back and forth .... But my word, they were hard to tempt

    We both cracked out the HB's (SX-40) and had so many look in's - but anytime it looked like they were about to engulf it, a Toadfish would come along and I could even see the Bream rolling their eyes

    It was pretty frustrating but also pretty damn sweet to watch them only a few metres away. They would sort of stare it down, i'd give em a tiny tweak which produced follows but many simply turned away. I managed to land my first Bream on HB and a few on Plastics. Shannan also converted a few taps to a nice Bream of about 37cm - and FAT

    All up we saw about 10 Dead Bream around the banks There were a few baito's around who were keeping their catch, so not sure if they have been handled poorly and released or just died of natural causes . Some were well sized too - 35cm

    Cheers,

    That is so true Beevor.

    Have you tried the CAMO version which is a hot colour here in Sydney and the surrounds?

    Yep, have tried the camo.... bloodworm, and new penny

    It's funny, on the day of the comp, slapped on the CAMO - no love

    As soon as we tried the Natural it was on like Donkey Kong We tried several others but there was really no point. We were catching plenty on these

    Have caught some on CAMO, but Natural is a gun down here

    Does the Natural colour pattern represent any particular morsel in the area you are fishing at or is it the bream is just a opportunist and will have a go at anything that is an easy target - that being Mr Beevors Natural Sandworm?
