Patterson river for bream
Fished Patterson river at high tide (11ish-2pm) 200m from the end ( not the mouth) the 3rd time I have tried for bream with no success. used pipis and peeled prawn. Not even nibbles! Flicked sp's nothing. Not really getting the hang of the technique for sp's or hb's has anyone had any luck at Patterson river for bream??

Re: Patterson river for bream
You need to be fishing around boats/moorings/structure there. Unlikely you will catch a bream just casting anywhere in the river.
Linc- "slimeys are great fun to catch, like hooking a giant vibrator with a propeller onto the end of your rod! Well done"

Re: Patterson river for bream
Thanks for the advice. Hmmm guess you need a boat/ kayak to get in there? Iv caught a couple baby flatties, they must grow bigger and leave.

Theres an art to Bream they are so easily spooked. SPeaking of which going to Powlett River to target them tomoz.. SP and live yabbies prawns and pipis in my kit.

Re: Patterson river for bream
If you can get your hands on some live bait (sand worms, salt water yabbies) or after a rain even scrub worms it'll give you much more of a chance there, The only decent bream I've caught and seen caught there were from the bank were on live bait.

Re: Patterson river for bream
Cdrolly yeh I'm using flurocarbon leader. Not yesterday but the time before I used fresh water yabbies Had little nibbles but that was it. Thanks for the advise. I have all next week off aswell so hopefully get out and do some more fishing.

Re: Patterson river for bream
Just a large-ish worm from....the scrub.... lol. Not a silly question. If you haven't been told you don't know. I don't know how to fly a plane coz no one has taught me!!! Scrubbies are a great freshwater bait, wasn't aware they were any good in the salt!!
If only I could fish more
