Pretty windy but as I got further up river it was a little better. Down in the caravan park the damiki wow grubs were getting plenty of hits and I had one get bitten in half but didn't have any bream hookups. Went further up river into the snaggy country and dropped one bream on the damiki but then switched to the gulp minnows and got a 36cm bream which ended up winning me the junior grand slam section of the comp. Went further up for trout but only had a few follows and had one bream around 25-30cm bite off the tail on my gulp minnow. |

No luck with the lures. The salmon and crab got caught just by an unweighted whole bluebait on a hook with stinger. No retrieve. Threw crab back, but ate the salmon :p In that hour, the two people next to us got 1 X 25cm salmon each as well. |

Fished up near a little bridge and had a few bites. I was hoping for my first bream; one came up to my worm when I was bringing it in then swam away. Pretty good fishing. |

A little bit windy but it dropped back. Lots of bites. We were actually fishing inside the boat harbour. Prawns were working best; use a little hook. |
