rjc123 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Your best bet at ATB at the moment is bream. Cast unweighted prawns (no sinker required) out and you should get a few. Nothing to stop you throwing a livebait out for hairtail, tailor and jewfish as well! Burley up just before dark and you should be able to get a few yakkas. If you get a legal tailor then that'll make a great livebait too! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

user1829 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 WHat type of prawns do you use mack? hawkesbury? you can even use cooked prawns from coles... better value than teh servo prawns you get (you have to buy the 400g bag to get decent sized ones if you buy from a servo) i reckon peeling them first is better to catch bream with too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjc123 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 WHat type of prawns do you use mack? hawkesbury? Hawkesbury definitely work best mate! It may sound weird but Garlic prawns are some of the best bream bait i've come across. Had a dozen left-over one time and decided i'd give them a go. 4 Bream between 31-37cm. Worth a shot! you can even use cooked prawns from coles... better value than teh servo prawns you get (you have to buy the 400g bag to get decent sized ones if you buy from a servo) i reckon peeling them first is better to catch bream with too Definitely mate! Bream will happily take a peeled cooked prawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
