LAND BASED LURE FISHING FOR FLATHEAD & BREAM In The Lower Estuary 

Thanks, Chris! Lots more coming.

Thanks! I agree.

Ouch.

Thanks so much, Michael!

No worries! Glad you liked it. 👍

Thanks so much! I love your vids, too. 👍

Not bad. My backyard.☺

Thanks!

I agree!

Welcome back!

Yes, it’s a lovely part of the world.

Thanks so much!

Thanks!

I can't guarantee you'll never get spiked again, but it IS worth a go.

I wouldn't rule it out!

Thanks! Yes, good suggestion. This one was far south coast of NSW.

Yep, I know this spot been there and seal was in there Dolphins next day

Thanks Peachy. Yes, those lower estuary reaches always seem a bit trickier on fly and lure in my experience. You’re right: they were yellowfin bream. Funny how perceptions can vary though. I’ve always regarded yellowfin as bolder and more aggressive than blacks, and therefore (generally) a little easier to fool with flies and lures than their southern cousins, but I guess it’s not that cut and dried.

I don’t have a lot of experience with your winter whiting (QLD, right?) and I don’t know how aggressive they are, but it has to be worth a try… Good luck!

Dear SS, they get into a feeding frenzy and yes Hervey Bay is my place of residence. Just taking in all my options before i go buy some more squidgies@@StarloGetsReel

I was wearing Adrenalin wetsuit-style shoes in this one. Good on the rocks.

Yep, crab flies work pretty well on bream, although it’d be tough in that current.

Could be pertly that. I also think water clarity and tidal movement must play a part. They’re much more catch-able on bait in those areas than lure or fly.

Hi Justin. Yes, I know a lot of the ABT guys. Actually, I competed quite actively in the early 2000s and was NSW's first Bream Angler of the Year (AOY) in the 2001 season. I love those comps. I think I'm getting a bit old these days to actively compete, but I still follow the fortunes of those who do. It's a wonderful tournament circuit! Steve Morgan has done an awesome job with it.

Thanks! Sure thing. 👍

@@StarloGetsReel ok thanks just watching your beach video using slow pitch jigs which are the best ones to buy I might give those a run up here off the beach

@@davidgc4396 most of them work. I was using a 40 gram Shimano one... I think they might be called a Slow Fall or something like that? But anything that flutters on the drop is good.

@@StarloGetsReel ok thanks Starlo I will try something like that I am just watching your Masterclass lure casting from shoreline video 😊🐠

Yes, pretty sharp.

Tuross. My local.

Yep, sure does. I rarely fish ANY lure - hard or soft - without a smear of S Factor.
