Bent Minnow MADNESS - BIG Gippsland Bream On Topwater

Hey guys,
This is part one of the first day fishing in gippsland with Dylan, with things starting to get a bit more serious with coronavirus we loaded up our Hobie Outbacks, a bunch of camping gear and some food and made our way to gippsland. This trip the main target was big bream but there are plenty of other species available in the area we planned to visit. It was a cracking trip away, with tons of fish caught and some great quality fish too, we were luck enough to be able to use surface lures for the majority of the day with OSP bent minnows proving a real standout.

Can’t beat the surface stuff hey 🙌🏼

[@MurrayCrabbFishing]

Nice mate, plenty of blimz and taylor 👌🏼👌🏼

[@HawkesyFishing]

Yeah there was a few about

[@10hanga]

Love tossing bent's for trout but never tried on the Bream are there areas of Lake Tyres clear enough to try these land based ?

[@HawkesyFishing]

Yeah, they go well down there. Plenty of places to use the land based in Gippsland. I don't know Tyers super well but there should be plenty of places they'll produce off the bank

[@jzfishing103]

What colour do you find most effective?

[@HawkesyFishing]

Theres a lot of good colours in the range but pink head (p74) and super wakasagi (gf76) are reliable choices

[@daveeccleston8627]

How’s the conditions !

[@HawkesyFishing]

Unreal, would love to get back down there again soon

[@bryce6267]

hey, have you had a try with dylan's miller rod? if so what do u think of it?

[@HawkesyFishing]

The millers are really nice, I've got a codfreak and will be buying more. Was there a particular model you were interested in?

[@bryce6267]

@@HawkesyFishing i find myself using hard bodys for bream more then soft plastics so most likely the twitchfreak. what have you got your eye on next?

[@HawkesyFishing]

@@bryce6267 Twitch freak is next, absolutely awesome for twitching hards for bream and comes close to being one of the best all rounders too

[@maxsmercurys9068]
