Seen bucket loads of small bream in the port.... ST's slowed down a bit... should hope start again soon... mid april

Heading to Stansbury in a 1.5 weeks for a week. Targeting whiting/mullet/gar/tommies/squid... should be good!!

berry bay is a cracker of a place!
why go there instead of browns carey???

thats why i'm going there mate i love it there had some succuss there chasing salmon and to be honest i think browns is alittle over rated just my opinoin tho. also had some nice fish caught at the dust bowl apart from nearly having bruise's from sand being blown at me had some great times there to.

fair enough
browns is very hit and miss from what ive seen and heard!

I caught the biggest bream I have ever seen, some 20 odd years ago,

Opposite the Leg Trap Hotel.

There was a park there but I don't know if it's there now.

I don't think it's called The Leg Trap Anymore....

I hope this helps you my friend.

20 years ago......

Your going to need a crane to lift em out....

Day one of my holidays got to West lakes a bit late .But I wandered down the right side of the lake couple of casts of my fly . I thought the wind is coming from the wrong direction .
Wandered down the left side of the lake nothing by the dragon club .Wandered a bit further around had a chat .Nothing .
Then I noticed a few jumps and circles .I cast amongst them nothing except a follow of something that could have been a tiny Snook.
Continued along my way stopped at some steps nothing .
I looked at my watch I was not allowed home before noon the wife had something on.It was 11.15 and I thought bait fish flies are only getting with the exception of the tiny snook mini me Bream .Why not try a foam surface fly the wind was increasing and plenty of small waves.Its a bit late by why not .
I had more action in five minutes with a piece of builders foam on a hook than I did the two hours before.Fish jumping out the water and I'm thinking its after 11 its to late .Almost had a 30cm plus Bream but as it was about to take the fly it spooked
But I continued on and dropped 2 Bream at 11.45 then checked my fly.Noticed the point on my hook was stuffed and changed my fly but that was it no more fish.
I headed home if I do any good tomorrow I'll post pictures in a new topic .

Cheers

Had another cast this morning .Lost a couple of tiny bream .They werent biting like monday .
But i did manage to get a nice size garfish mouth my fly and move off and then a tiny snook have a sniff.

Mind u in about 3 hours there was very little action

Stay tuned it has to get better.
