Walked the banks after 2nd gate - no hits on hard bodies but plenty of bites on the soft plastics but no hooks ups. Used a Squidgy Soft plastic with s-factor and got the frog 3rd cast. Lost a big bream at the end and it was time to go. |

It was a nice day for fishing and a little bit of wind. I wanted to try something new for bream so i tried chicken and it was an excellent bait for bream, the tide was 3 metres when I caught the big one around 8:30 am then when it hit 9:00 am the tide went to 2 metres then no more big bites, they were all small. |

It was a nice day for fishing. I used a float and used dough as bait and caught 12 mullet and a good size trevally. After an hour they stopped biting so I used steak and caught 4 mullet. There were no more bites after that so I went home. |

It was bad as always, we moved from the first flood gate to the end of the complex. I used a whiting rig. I was only picking up seaweed, but when all hope was lost I caught the gudgeon, so a good days fishing. |
