Pb Bream On Sp

[adzzy]

Hi All

knocked of work early yesterday so decided to wet a line at Birken Head flicking the marina on about the 10th cast caught my Pb bream 44cm and about 2kg on 6bl braid

on the return trip home stopped to pick up my trap i had dropped on way out for another Pb this time a huge muddy about 2-3 kg so have decided to knock of work early more often from now on

should i add the bream to the brag board or catch of the month?

Nice work and both crackers!

Are you casting into the marina after your bream?

The sercurity is on the ball usually down there.....

Congratulations Adzzy on the pbs!

All because you knocked off work early. Imagine if you'd have taken the whole day off!

That bream is a real thumper.

And I never thought I'd say it, but I am actually jealous of someone with the crabs!

Top catch.

Cheers

Muddies in the harbour?!

Can you give us a very rough guide as to what sort of area?

That crab's huge!

[Josh88]

Great bream mate, thats a nice big one, 2kg is a good size.

Nice on the muddie as well, bet that tasted good.

Add your photo to catch of the month and brag board if you want-its all up to you!

Cheers

Hi Qwyjibo

I can do better and give you the exact spot

i have been catching them there for years and caught plenty this size each one as tasty as the last, and NO i do not feel ill or mutated in any way

cheers

Inside the marina is ment to be a "fish sanctuary" so the coast gaurd and sercurity use to always tell us..

That place is full of MONSTER bream

Take a loaf of bread down and rip a few pieces up and chuck it in the corner of your berth.

Shouldn't take long for the bream to start going ape over it.

Now squash some over a unweighted hook but leave a section unsquashed so it will either float or slowly sink and hang on!

Some of the old blokes in there and Cabarita marina showed me this many years ago.

Fish sanctuary my ass.

It's a public waterway. You can't own the water.

They're just concerned about me dinging the hull of their precious floating gin palaces with my jig heads

There is a sign over on the western end near where the coast guard boats are parks. It's on the wall near the stairs of the main building......

I tried that argument before to!

How far does it continue into the river or is it just within the mariner

because i have seen people fishing off the wall at birken head for years at all hours

Adzzy - very nice bream mate.

There is absolutely no problem fishing the outside wall mate, though some of the gestapo will try to tell you that it is "private" on the outside of the marina too. I've been shoo'd away whilst fishing the outside walls of the marina at cabarita, though the security guard couldn't tell me how far the "private property"of the marina extended out from the outside pontoons.

cheers, Greg

Thats my thoughts outside the pontoons is public inside is private

so i will continue to fish there until i get an official warning or fine

specially if it can produce me more fish like that on light gear heaps of fun

Keep at 'em adzzy!
