Winter Bream

 With summer well and truly over I'm finding it harder to tempt bream around the canning bridge sort of area.

Is this just winter and the bream not being as active and eating as much or have they justy left this area?

Cheers, Andrew

 The bream are around that

 The bream are around that area & further upstream all year round. During the cooler months they do seem to get a bit lethargic though. During winter you will usually get less bream but they will usually be bigger. Slowing down your retrieve may help at times as will switching to soft plastics if you are flocking hard bodies.

 Perfect time of year for big blackies at the causway. Fish high tide(dont worry about time of day) with black or brown crabs. Give them a twitch every 30 seconds so they dont dig in. good luck and hang on.

 Personally ive found that are to be better during winter. There are more bigger bream, but you may just have to try differnt techniques to tempt them as they arent usually asagressive as during the warmer months.

 Just spoke to a forum member earlier today that I've been to all my spots that have produced bream a couple of months ago on artificials and got nothing for the last 6 sessions. I've seen bream but seem to scatter when the lure goes past them, very frustrating. 

Might have to stick on some peeled prawns on my lead head soon.

cheers
