Re: please identify this fish

how would you catch the boney bream in fresh water dams as you often hear about fishing the bait schools of boney bream for larger fish.
Thanks Pete

Re: please identify this fish

People at times get them on lures. I think it must be a reaction bite. It's the same with Garfish. They usually follow your lure, most times leaving it alone but other times they give it a whack and swim off. But yes, that is definately a Boney Bream. We get them quite often in the Lower Reaches of the Brisbane River if there'sbeen some good down poor. We usuallyget them in schools upto around 10-15 depending on size.
