2KG Bream!!!

[F1SH_BOY]

hey ausfishos,
i recently fished lake illawarra (tuesday) hoping for some flathead and bream we left about 2:30 boat in the water about 2:50-3:00 we tryed our 1st spot not a bite things werent looking to good about 30 mins later we decided to move down the channel we saw people pulling up tones of blackfish so we decided to anchor. nothing for about 10 mins we were getting worried then on sunset bang! landed our 1st fish for the day only 30cm but good enough after that bream were just flowing in around 27cm to 40cm.

as they stopped bang my skipper brang up a nice 40cm bream about 1.5kg then 3 mins later i was on i thought it was a big tailor fighting real hard then i saw it i couldnt beleive it it was the biggest bream i have seen we got it aboard measured 49 cm and 2kg very happy but still couldnt beleive it!

we tryed all diferent types of soft plastics but not even a bite i have officialy gone of sp's as they dont work and are a waste of money down this way in n.s.w.

all up an awesome day and a nice feed.

Mate I'd be checking youre ruler and youre scales. If that one in your hand is 49cm then you must be a giant!!!!! (with a really big hand)

I've got the pen to bream ratio at 6:13 the longest pen on my desk goes 15cm therefore if we divide 15 by 6 and then multiply by 13 we get 32.5 , hope thats right as I'm doing it in my head, but still a little short of the magic number. The longest pencil on my desk goes 17cm, ahh I see the pens are bigger in the 'gong.
