I have been bream fishing at Barwon River near every week for some times now. The breams there are very large, ave 35cm (28 to 43cm). Last weekend we landed 8 breams, 2 ludericks, many mullets and KG whitings in 6 hrs.
Secret location: park yr car at the end of River Pde and walk approx 500m to the sand bank.
Rig & bait: use No. 4 or 6 long hook and beach worm. cast out to the middle of the river.

Re: Big breams at Barwon River
just wondering how heavy sinkers stand in the current there?
2oz would be enough or too heavy?

Hi Oztekman,
The current can be quite strong there. I normally use No.6 ball sinkers.
If you plan to fish there, be prepare to lose a few sinkers & hooks.
I wasn't able to go fishing on the weekends, but friends caught 15 breams there on Sunday.

A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work.
