Alexsfishin1 781 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Headed to a rock wall with Nathan which I know holds plenty of good bream, reading some of piratepom's recent posts! Burleyed up and threw out a chunk on an unweighted size 4 bait holder hook. Almost ever cast the bait was getting smashed by either bream or small st. After a few smaller fish, I hooked onto a bigger one which went 30cm! Then another at 31cm! A few more legals and then this one jumps on the hook!!! It went for a screaming first run! As I got it close to the rocks, it decided to dive into tight gaps which frayed the 6lb leader a bit. Luckily I turned it's head and got it up to the surface. Took a few snaps and measured it up, 36cm on the dot. Healthy fish too! Of course, released to fight another day. bjorn2fish, projoe, Magoo and 10 others 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 1,645 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Another top notch fish mate. And love the release, though I thought you were a keeper fisho. My old man nags me to keep bream when we fish together, but they take so long to grow, I like to let them go. And I still reckon those sunnies make you look like Rocky Balboa....

Brankim 945 Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Nice fish mate! Yeah after you chase them on lures, you get a new appreciation for them! Don't think I've taken one home in over 8 years! Apart from some yellowfin bream on holiday in forester. Too good to catch just once! Alexsfishin1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
