Swan River Bream

Well after spending 20+ hours trying the e-shed and not having much luck the

past week, i decided to go back to "old faithful" the swan river.. Heading down 

a bit lower towards Guildford area.. Was a good session, pulled in plenty Bream

biggest being around 25cm.. couldnt get any to take a soft plastic.. all caught 

on river prawns from local servo...

Bream are always a good back up if nothing else is bighting.  Sometimes you just need to get a bend in the rod!

it was a little blowy. not the easiest onditions to chuck out unweighted prawns.. but wasnt to bad. The tide was really high! highest ive seen it, roughly about 1 meter higher than low tide, i usually fish the morning but went in the evening for a change.

Still cant manage to get anything on a lure.

 I prefer evenings i must say,but have cought all through the day.

I am the same mate i still struggle with hard body's but usually get a result on sp's so gennerally stick with them and there a lot cheaper too. I'm sure you'll get results if you keep at it!
