Nice bream. Cast line out, placed rod on jetty, turned away then heard a splash to realise my rod was gone, jumped in the water and searched for about 10 min to no avail... my dad grabbed another rod and cast and retrieved for 5 min and eventually hooked into the rod which had the 35cm, 1.5 pound, black bream dangling on the end... hehe! |

I landed two bream, one small, then another of about 750 grams. Clint and Nathan landed one each - Clint's was about a pound. I fished the wind lanes with a drifting prawn, to great success. Then some idiot stole my rod. |
