fisho.sid Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Last sunday was beautiful in sydney. Had the opportunity to fish or to have an afternoon siesta and decided to go for a fish. Went to my local with the misses and a 6 pack of cider a camping chair, a dozen oysters from the fish markets as nibbles to keep the misses happy and nibbles. As i was about to sit down to enjoy the nibbles, my misses's rod goes off and with a bit of luck landed a 31 cm model and 5 oysters later it goes off again and this time a 30cm comes up. Left 20 mins later as the sun goes down and most importantly the misses didnt feel bored. "her kind of fishing" as she described it I havent caught bream this size in years especially in sydney and off a public wharf so i was totally suprised, so i'm glad this season started off well.

bretto101 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 nice fish ! what was your rod set up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisho.sid Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hi bretto, nothing special, it's an affordable setup, maybe $200 max... its an everyday rod which i use for bream, trevs and for catching bait etc... its a 6ft rod ($80 setup shimano of some sort carbon), sienna 2500 on 6 pound braid and 8 pound fluoro I must say for a cheap reel, the sienna is great. Its really versatile for the type of fishing you do land base of wharves (which is what i mostly do). I've even caught a soapie from it by memory. The closest hawkesbury system for me would be bobbin head but i havent found the art of catching anything decent there, land based anyways.

Witha Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Great catch! Also a fan of the sienna, smooth little reel for the price. Have the 1000 model for my light sp work and no complaints!
