Freshy Bay Lure sesh

After only fishing bait most of last year this year i have started using lures and caught my first bream on a MF40 that went 31cm.

So i revisited the same spot and gave it another crack.
In the first 30 mins i hooked up on a mf40 and within seconds it bust be off on a pylons. And felt like a decent bream (35+)

With morale low i kept fishing and hooked up again on my mf40 and landed my first Flathead from the Swan River. This fish went 31cms. and with no one around only got a release shot and some other average shots.

I kept fishing and thought i'd change to a snapback grub( inspired by Aussie_Breamer) this was in avacado colour. I hooked up with it 3rd cast and land a nice flathead that went 42cms and was stoked.

It would have been a cracka day if only the first fish didnt get away but it was still good for a quick 2 hr session.

Cheers duffman.

Gear used was a sienna with 6lb braid and 8lb flouro

a MF40 is a sinking soft vibe. The water is too deep around there for a sx40 to get down to the fish as it only dives 2 metres when the fish i get are in waters deeper than that.
You may need to invest in some sinking lures like vibes E.G River2sea Babyvibe or a weighted softplastic so you can let it  sink.
