benny 1 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Have caught mullies on plastics at night, so they definitely work but dunno about bream. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger 48 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Of course it's difficult to cast accurately and watch your line at night, but it can be done! White or even black are effective colours at night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Softy 2,991 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Would putting some form of stimulant on it help more at night? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brenton 637 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 The amount of bream i've caught on S/Ps at night i could count on 2 hands but if you find the secret let me know. cheers brenton Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ben m 0 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Fishin plastics at night can be deadly on the bream. Its all about feel and keeping in direct contact with your lure under the cover of darkness as the hits also tend to be alot softer. Try plastics with plenty of inbuilt action like squidgy fish, wrigglers or gulp turtle back worms allowing your lures to sit on the bottom a bit longer as well. the biggest port river bream ive ever seen landed was caught landbased at about 11pm on a no.2 squidgy wriggler, from memory it went about 47-48cm fork length. Also cant see why adding scent wouldnt help in the dark either. This also works on the mullies too. Hope that helps mate. Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
matty89 0 Posted January 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 thanks guys im trying for mullies mainly but was hoping bream would take them too to keep me focused untill a mully shows up if it dosecheers matty89 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ben m 0 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 try the smaller slick rigs also, heard they go alright with the mullies Quote Link to post Share on other sites
