My biggest yellowfin bream was caught in the "Brisbane Waters" system on the Central Coast of NSW, on bait (whole pilly on ganged hooks meant for jew!), at night, from shore, in January, many years ago.
I am sure it is not a record breaker among you gents, but it weighed in at 1.6kg cleaned. (And no, I wouldn't keep the fish if I had caught it in the last few years, so keep the flaming to a minimum)
My biggest black bream weighed in at about 900 grams alive, so still a little one, from the same system.
I do not know lengths on either.

I am yet to crack the kilo on lure for either species!!! (At least when I have a scale with me to prove it )

huh
bear, it says in the link that u gave barra cam that the biggest black bream caught in australia was 3.45 ro sumthin but i thought that the biggest was 3.67....the pic fo that bream was in the old shop

im confused

[Bear]

Was it a registered catch? If people don't get the record confirmed, it doesn't get noted.

[Breamtastic]

it was th bream in the breammaster shop in inglewood.....the one on the chair wid the baby standing net to it with a very curious look on its face.

i dunno if it was registered but it had the weight and date and place where it was caught.

That pic is in this thread.

BTW, I noticed that WA's biggest Bludger is only 11.113 kg. We grow 'em much bigger over in Vic

[Breamtastic]
