G`day fellow fishing fanatics , this is my first post on this forum . i have been following fishraider forum now for about a month and am really impressed . the members are very encouraging and seem to give advice to help others who may not have as much knoledge or experience. anyway i fished tuggerah lake this morning , landbased near toukley bridge got there just before sunup to try my new BERKLEY dropshot 1-3 kg 7 foot rod with my old shimano 2500 threadline reel . i`ve got just 4 lb flouro line on it, i managed to land 2 nice bream 31 cm and 29 cm . i was only using bait , pudding made with cheese and plain flour and was also using some chicken fillet , both bream caught on the pudding unweighted. i kept the 2 bream as we havent had fresh fish for a couple of weeks thanks to the crap weather. the lakes water is really dirty at the moment and quite a bit of current which made it difficult to hold bottom. i have been getting quite a few bream during winter fishing light and also fishing early morning or late in the arvo . now that i have a decent rod i want to start fishing soft plastics to target the bream and also flatties as the weather warms up. so i am open to any advice regarding SP`s and also the best sizes or weights of jigheads. hope i havent bored you folk , cheers from " bazagorokan ".
