bait for bream - Page 3

Ohhh thats sounds good Scott, but i've found that the really big bream will only take 2kg+ squid, you'll only catch 2 or 3 kg bream on baby squid.

Hey brody i got some new JW gear i wanna try. Its called a stelltiga. Has 30 grams of drag and weighs only 3.8kg. Also got a new rod from JW... Sweet.

Scott i dont think u can come sorry

Our boat holds 6 people, but once u chuck on four 6kg bream, its full and can only hold 2 people. Maybe next time eh? I can taste the fish cakes already... mmMMmmnn

"2.13kg bream caught by a burger"

yeh that reel sounds sweet, Jarvid Walker are producing some tip top gear at the moment my favourite is the JW 2.1m telescopic rod, its great for handling those 10cm bream that fight so well. Very nice crisp rod.

Oscar.

On a serious note, good baits are:
presh prawns, mussels, boney herring

And in winter, u may wanna throw around some soft plastcs (mitch&chris prefers to call them SP's) such as bass minnows, and 2" grubs

Umm lets see. About 60 whiting from Werribee-Altona on Pipis in 4 trips last summer. I have caught bream on pipi from GWF whiel whiting fishing, a few pinkeis too. Pipi's work trust me....I swear by them

im not questioning a pipis ability to catch a whiting but considering he asked for "bream baits" ur suggestion of pipis was pretty useless.....

scott,im not sure what ur experiences are but i where i fish when i use bait the fish a very picky and fussy and wont touch anything that isnt live or fresh as.wat im saying is it may catch the odd bream here and there but it wont catch them as consistantly as baits such as bass yabbies,sandworms etc.

I know people that have caught 2kg + bream on pippiess... I myself have not caught much on them, but i have not used them much.
