Re: Brighton Pier mega land based fishing thread
Hi guys,
Saturday I was free for the whole day, so I got out of bed a little early and went to beaumauris pier. I was there from 7:30 - 9:30, and went there with some plastics and squid jigs. A few awesome blokes were catching gars, and they were getting a lot as well. I didn't bring my gar outfit, so I stuck to lures. I caught a nice bream at 32cm, no pics cos it was pretty beat up and I wanted to get it back in ASAP. There was a school of squid around 15-20cm hanging around the pier but I couldn't temp them into taking one of my jigs, similarly with a school of salmon that was feeding on some baitfish. I also caught a KGW at 34cm, which was a nice surprise
All fish caught on a zman 2.5inch grub in Watermelon Red
Later in the day I went to Brighton, and was there for 2 hours, leaving just before the big blow. Nobody was catching anything but I caught a pinky at 20cm and missed a few other bites. I might switch to a smaller lure...
Lure used: 4inch zman streaks curly tail in Bad Shad.
Cheers

Re: Brighton Pier mega land based fishing thread
I'm going to try Brighton pier today. Will be my first time. Been reading threads on breakwall as a target area? Anyone have tips for where to also target squid there and other species tips be appreciated as I'll be new here.
