well done

My mate said the same thing, "like the ones from California"

[Pb Squid]

what sort of squid is it??

doesnt look like a southern or an arrow

I don't know much about squid, going off Squidboys post I'd say it's an arrow, resembles an arrow having the wings at one end.

Hey all,

Couldn't resist throwing something at this, took around 45 min to bring in due to gear being light and damaged.

Needed to maintain the tension on this beast, the drag was sticking and the handle had completely seized, proved to be a hard, tedious fight.

It measured Over 110 cm to it's longest point, over 70cm from head to tail.

Does anyone know if it is record worthy or are they caught this big often? my mates have never seen anything like it.

Yum... Calamari rings the size of cereal bowls and stacks of prime jew bait.

Cheers

ah damn i need to get out there

so there is still fish around.......

is the bay any good atm?

nice work the bream would be fun on lightgear

what jighead weight u used? how deep were they?

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.

The river in general seems to be fishing well atm, there has been times where the fishing slowed down. Seems to be good regular Bream around, though I'm not landing as many Flattie as I have been, but they are there 'cause they're being cleaned in front of me at the cleaning tables, some 60+cm.

SP's and Blade fishing only for me of late but no jews on artificial, plenty in the past on bait. Hats off to fishos like Musty who have cracked their "jew on lure" system.

I use 1/32 jigheads when the conditions allow and up it accordingly, that big bream was caught on a 1/8 cause i ran out of small jigheads, the water was a 10-30 foot drop off next to a rocky shore.

Cheers Mick

Hi all,

My first post

Fished the Hawkesbury on Monday, tried tee bagging a few deep holes for a school jew on plastic, no luck.

Family wanted a feed of Bream so concentrated on the rocky shoreline, some nice fish from 28cm -42cm.

Water temp. was down to 13.3, though 14.4 just wide of Juno, few flattie hooked in the warmer water.

The photo doesn't seem to do the big Bream any justice, but it was a real honker! I need a brag mat!

My PB Black Bream was taken in Berowra about 5 years ago on a yellowtail fillet (destine for a jew), got a photo somewhere, it went to 48.5cm, so 42cm is my PB Yellowfin Bream taken on 3 inch SP.

Love know other peoples Bream PB's, Yellowfin and Black....
