A very testing weekend of fishing.
Gin clear waters and knowing that there is thousands of Bream
in the system, with little interest in our lures.
Here's a short video of what's under most pontoons.

Knowledge is what you get when you read the instructions.
Experience is what you get when you don't.

Hey Matty
Good vid!! Yep getting to see whats going on under the water is a real eyeopener (frustrating). Will take you for a drift dive in the bottom lake at Mallacoota sometime!!!
Well done on the second.

Bream Chat...
" hey here comes that guy in the P.A with his camera in the water again"
"Ahhh!!!! P.A's pffft."
Nice vid Matty
Talk about frustration,
I was in Noosaville a couple of months ago, went to a pontoon resturant take away.
Whislt eating my chips I looked over the side (as any fisherman would do and saw some bream,
flicked a few chips bits over and swooop.....whoosh....whooosh
Next thing I know I had over 100 bream spiralling waiting for the next chip.
The things you see when you have left your circle hooks at the apartment.

Bloody barstard bream, blasting a bomb would have been better than bouncing a bream blade beneath those bloody pontoons....
