Yowie Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Pumped some nippers yesterday arvo, so I could head out early this morning. Headed to the sand flats in Gunnamatta Bay so I was fishing at first light on the horizon, drifted about the flats for the bream and couple of whiting. By the time the sky was about half light, the fish stopped biting. Drifted about for a while until after sun-up for only a couple of little pickers, and a few fat porcupines. Not much of a report, but it was a bit of fun while the fish were on the bite. 6 pound mono and a longshank hook, and the bigger bream made a few fast runs during the fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Fine bag of fish Dave, those bream look so tasty Chris . Thank you Chris. Most of the bream had quite of number of crushed shells in their guts, don't know what sort, similar to small pipis but not quite. All either fat with roe or milt, so must have been getting ready for spawning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Good stuff yowie nice bag of bream there, interesting to see them eating shellfish Have found them on as few occasions full of crushed shells. Right through the intestines, must be a pain in the arse heading out the other end. One also had a stomach full of squirt worms, and another had a small nipper and a couple of small crabs.
