Bream fishing.

[barramundi]

Caught a Gilthead bream flyfishing yesterday - took a yellow/white clouser. Fishing in warm water from the kayak.

Black bream are about in W. wales still, for another couple of weeks at least. Come October they disappear somewhere - probably Jersey!!!

What about the good old fashion Prawn, always a Bream favourite.

I tend to use small strips of squid, on a two hook flapper, with small size 1 or 1/0 hooks.

 

Its rough ground they like generally I believe, so expect to lose some gear. I am in Jersey, and had one yesterday, so they are still around, even in Guernsey!

I have caught one on a light float rig and pound for pound they scrap better than bass. If you know the depth (fishfinder is on my list) set a sliding rig so that it is about 3ft above the floor. Size 1 with rag (tail off) tipped with squid. Recommend Vanish 4ft hook length below lead.

 

Apart from having a better fight you wont get plaqued by crabs or lose any gear.

 

All this knowledge and still no Yak...come on birthday ...still not long now!
