Coffee Water at Tweed with a Pb and a first!!

[chrisallangler]

Today i made my way down to Tweed again to investigate and see if i could get some bigger bream than usual. I fished around th trawlers for a while for absolutley zip, just a few slight touches. Well i thought ethe whoole day would have been crap. I moved spots down to te bridge with thoughts of snagging my first decent bream on a hb, so on goes the Sx40 ( don't know what colour but it's black) first cast straight at the pylons and tap, tap, WHACK im on a few good runs (the best fight i have had with a bream) in comes my first bream on a Hb and my new PB at a alright 34cm. ( getting bigger) . Well by this point she swims aways and i cast again at the pylons for a nice hit but miss, again cast at the pylones an WHACK!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ... this feels better ..a few more runs and i bring in my first trevor at 38cm i was pretty stoked and they go so hard on 4lb. The trev broke one of my trebles on my Sx 40 so i went back to a placcies ( Gulp! shrimp) and straight away im on again but only with a little tacker at 25. I did manage a few smaller bream whci wern't worth a photo of. So it ended up being a good day in the coffee coloured water. I think now i will stock up on some more Eco gears

Well done again Chris,some nice fish.The trev would have given you a decent little fight. Cheers

[chrisallangler]

thanks fellas,

Cheif- The trev went bizerk, and it was a battle to keep it from the oyster encrusted rocks. It was definatley " heart in your mouth" stuff when i had to leader it up a 1meter ledge witht eh 4lb fluro.

Pete- Yeah about time, hopefully their is many more to come and thnkas for those tipe witht he Hb's it turned out it was just a nice slow retrieve down deep that got me the fish.

Cheers Jeff.

Thanks Jeff, yeqah i do travel a fair bit, but most of the time it's worth it, i live all the way oout on the verge of brisbane and ipswich, and the bad bit is it's a hike to a decent fishing spot.

hey chris, i spent a week down the tweed im also from suburban brissie. Try the other side of the bridge, its heaps better for trevs because you can cast to the second set of pilons, get a 1/4 jighead and some squidgey flickbaits or some nice shiny sp's cast into the eddies or cast inbetween the 2 middle pilons i picked up a few trevs there, also there is a rockwall that goes from there to the a jetty up there wich is mad for bream and cod and moses perch and sometimes you will see a bustup and you cast to it and its an instant hookup to a trev great fun.
