Gday all,

Went out monday afternoon in search for some botany bay bream. It ended up being a hot bite with 18 bream in total being caught, the biggest one was 42 cm. We also landed 2 whiting, 4 trevors and a 3.2kg flathead which we let go to fight another day. Sorry about the photo quality as it was taken by a mobile phone.

Yiasoo Steve !

That's a nice catch of bream there.

Was the afternoon quieter for boat traffic than the morning?

I bet it was. This has a dramatic effect on the fishing.

Boats buzzing by means buggerall bream. How's that for a mouthfull ?

That flattie was a big one - well done.

Did you get it while drifting? I rarely catch flatties on my bream spots at anchor.

I have caught a fair few bream drifting but I pretty much anchor every time now, unless the fish are very disbursed.

So you would have fished the falling - tide - warmer water coming out of the river (heated up during the course of the day), some fresh water mixed in (rain), little boat traffic - a good recipe for good fishing as the fish exit the river.

I haven't been out in a while - I've forgotten which end of the hook to bait !

Hey keflapod

I always anchor up, never tried drifting. I dunno how that flathead didnt cut me off on 3kg line, i always lose smaller one's next to the boat...funny thing was when i went to cut the line to release the fish, i open its mouth and see another little flattie sticking out of its guts hahah!
