Wifes first bream
Went down to Riverton today for my youngest girls birthday picnic, took a load of rods for my kids to have a fish and the tinny so they could have a ride, got them all fishing and they were all picking up 15-20cm bream,never really got into bream myself but thought bugger this, getting shown up by my kids again so I jump in the tinny with my eldest, get to some fishy looking water and start casting into the snags. Within about 15 minutes ethan had caught 4 bream about the same size, gutted, shown up again, decide to change tactics and fish with unweighted bluebait, first cast and a fish of around 31cm, great head back before Ethan gets a bigger one! After lunch managed to talk my wife, Pip into coming out for a fish in the same spot, same deal, got some between us around 20-25 and then both rods went off, mine went straight to the snags and I couldnt move it, Pip still had hers on my sons little tacklerat combo. couldnt believe it when the bream came to the surface, Pips first time fishing and first fish shes ever caught and its 37cm and 760grams! decided I might give up fishing cos if my kids arent showing me up, my wife is!! (Will post some pics when I can get a cable for my camera!!)

Hapens to me all the time.
Ha Ha my kids and my missus out fish me all the time on my boat . They think that I let them catch more so they will come out more often but I am actually trying my hardest HA HA.
Come to think of it everyone that comes out on my boat catches more than me. I suppose the skipper can use the excuse that Im driving putting passengers on the fish.

Love it
I caught some sea bream, thought they were baby snapper till old fart told me what they were, god they can go even though they were all under size (palm of my hand size), made a boring day catching sea weed amd blowies, exciting day, they are are a cute looking fish.
