hey guys! i've been fishing balcombe creek for bream a lot lately ( most likely tomorrow). i've been using lures but i've noticed all the reports of fish in there are on bait. i'll be bringing some gardenworms and will just be using them unweighted. post your tips below. cheers matari. :water:

I've never fished there so i can't give you much help.. Aren't you doing that well with lures? What lures are you using and how are you fishing them?

Go to the supermarket and get some uncooked banana prawns peel them and cut them into about 3 baits from each prawn. Use the peels and heads as berley bream & flatties love them.

They are great to eat mate.
Although I haven’t had a feed for quite sometime. Might need to go fix that. Good luck today.
