Thanks Fishwrecked and PB Bream

Hi All

I'm a lurker, not a poster but just wanted to drop in and say thanks to all the people that contribute on this site. I for one have learnt al lot about fishing and how to improve. From bream fishing in kayaks in the Swan to Salmon down Sth and the Friday funnies and all the bits in between I now do more catching and a bit less fishing than I used to.

I am land based and use bait. Never had much luck with lures although I bring them out once in a while to see how I go.

 

Had the pleasure of taking my nearly 80 year old dad fishing on the weekend in the Canning river. We caught a few and had a good time. I was lucky enough to get my PB Bream. 43cm, unweighted hook, 6lb leader and line with a bit of shelled prawn. My new "secret" spot, about number 7 for the afternoon, was chosen because I could park close by and the access to the sand was easy. So not very hi tech.

 Well done, thats a cracker bream in anyone's book, and to do it with the old man is even better. That area holds some stoinkers this time of year they're real solid too. Looking foward to more cracking posts
