I want to see your best Bream!!!!

[BrandonH]

Hi all, I don't know if this has been done b4, probablly but i could't find anything a few pages back!!

Anyways Seeing Bream seasion is on us again ;D I would like to see some thumping big Bream to get me worked up again to catch the big one this seasion!! ;) I would like to know the general area they were caught too, I don't want to be thinking your monster from down south was caught up this way ;)

I can start it off with the best one I have on Camera. it was 35cm to the tip of the tail and caught on whitebait at night in the Pine River, dam tall fat Bream too :D. We have caught plenty on plastics here too but not quite as big as this one :) The second Pic is my mate with one of his Bream (can't find the pic of your better one sorry mate :-[ if i do i will post it). it is closer to the average size we get at either spot X or Y up the pine ;) Lol

Cheers
Brandon...

Was a while ago - 1971 at Teewah. Weighed 41/2 lb.

[manchild]

Thats bribie the passage side :)
cheers

[Slider]

What's Bribie passage side George?

[Streetkid]

Brandon, mine came from wooyung beach in northern nsw caught him on a pippi and he was 2lb at a minimum.

[Canoedle]

:o That's a monster Slider, same weight as my PB, but I have no pics, mine was caught in Toogoom north of Hervey Bay in 1989, will post the certificate to prove it, won me best fish of the month in the local running comp. :)

[Slider]

Manchild - see your post of bribie passage bream now. I'll blame the JD's last night.
Canoedle - Was a lot of big bream around Teewah in those days but only ever caught 3 over 4lb. They're a special fish at that size for sure. Hardly ever see fish over 3lb these days and in fact don't see too many bream being caught in the surf here at all anymore.
Archer - I notice that bream pic you posted has a 'dip' at the front of the dorsal. Have seen that a lot in estuary bream in recent years and am wondering what causes it. 2 theories that have been posted not long ago were that is caused by nets as juveniles or is a disease. Does anybody have any firm ideas as to what this is?

I always put it down to attacks from predators as they always look like mouth shaped wounds, remember seeing this on bream in the 80s so it's nothing new.

[BrandonH]

Thanks for the posts guys!! and the update on areas ;) I have seen alot of Bream with that dip also and think its due to atack or maybe hitting something while swiming away from an atack? or maybe even anglers using them as bait :( very close to where you would put hte hook..
Dosn't change how they taste though ;)

Cheers

[wesbo]

this is not my best but it's a good fish

[wesbo]

Cheers
Brandon.

[wesbo]

mate down on the shoalhaven river N.S.W

[fishingbarry]

Bill Gates and I are not seeing eye to eye so I can't post a picture, my pictures have all been scanned from 35mm photos not digital so this "htlm' files is not happening. Anyway 45cm to the fork of the tail ,caught right in front of Teewah late one night while changing bait water just had to have one cast at the gutter that was calling me and wham ,bam thankyou mam. Got a photo its 3 xxxx gold cans long, there is no better measuring stick in the world. Ah back to paradise next weekend I cant wait.
Cheers
Barry

[Slider]

G'day Barry

I believe that XXXX heavy cans are a much better measuring device!!
Most of the really big bream caught on this beach over the years have come from in front of Teewah due to the reef. Unfortunately the reef is mostly covered by sand at the moment - bring on a cyclone!
When are you heading up mate?
