Starlo you are one of the pioneers of plastics from bream in Australia always a pleasure watching you fish.
Thank you, skeet!
Good to see even the pro's still throw their lures into the trees :)
You bet!
Bloody beast good work man 🎣
A Bream session like that would be a dream come true for a hack like me. Top stuff Starlo.
I was pretty rapt! They're not all like that. ;)
Gee, Starlo.
That is a solid Bream mate. Perfect start for a great session on the water. Keep the exciting fishing going my friend.
Normie.
Cheers mate! I will. 👍👍👍
HUUUUGE bream! If only Port Phillip Bay still had some like that where you could find them.
awesome work starlo, though the one in the snags was surly going to stitch you up, great angling 😂 love watching a master
Thanks mate! It was touch and go there for a sec'!
Had a wonderful vicarious pleasure in watching this Steve and you were the who really instigated soft plastics for bream and other species. Had great sessions myself, esp with whiting on bloodworms.This was amazing to watch.How lucky we are to have these sensational sportfish.
Glad you enjoyed it! Tight Lines.
That was an epic session of bream fishing, thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Loved the footage and the narrative that is a video I will watch over and over again.
Thanks Starlo 💜🎣
Thanks so much for that! When you re-watch it, look for those little "ticks" in the line. It's a fascinating exercise!
Great video Starlo thanks for the tips mate 👍💯
No problem 👍
This video helping get through a weeks worth of Isolation! Your content Is perfect Starlo, camera, sound and fishing narrative just beautifully done.
Thank you so much for that wonderful feedback! Get well soon!
great video mate! totally felt your happiness!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Masterclass is a great name for this video. I could sit for hours watching Bream getting caught on lures. Trout is my No1 go to fishing Bream No2 i cant wait for trips to the East Coast of Tassie like Swansea and just spend day after day targeting Bream such a special fish. ATB Brad
So true! And you're blessed with some brilliant bream fishing in Tasmania!
Such a wholesome and informative video. Thanks for taking us with you. It truely feels like we are out on the bream session with you. Great work
Thanks so much! That’s exactly the feel I’m looking for when I shoot these videos. 👍
I've had some decent bream sessions over the last 30 years but that would certainly take the cake. Perfect sunset and not another fisho in sight.
Yes, it was a great little session.
Fantastic clip Steve. You can read all the books and magazines in the WORLD on fishing, but nothing beats watching an expert as they show you how its done 😊😊
Thanks Tim!
Thats decided it. As soon as this storm has passed i'm putting the boat in and chasing a few sulky winter bream. Got my casting arm twitching Starlo, love your work.
Thanks mate! Good luck!
Great video mate 👌Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Thank YOU! 👍
I love the way that you explain your thought process and reasoning during this fishing video. This makes all the difference between an entertaining video and an entertaining and educational video. Very professional. Thanks.
Thanks so much for your kind words! Glad you enjoyed it.
What a session, cheers for sharing Starlo. Loving the two camera setup and the more wisdom you share the better. Thanks mate!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Starlo still makes a good fishing video, good work mate.
Thanks mate!
Great session, great bit of story telling, reminds of why I used to love reading your articles of the 80's/90's over and over - a time when story telling was what made for a good read! More of this Steve - just fish and film whatever you're doing at the time, your channel like all the successful fisho channels, will grow in time by itself. That, I am sure of!
Thanks Frank! Yep, that’s the plan!
Framk Saunders - Steve helped me go from keen dangler to proficient angler through the article if FWF and Modern Fishing back in the day. Waaayyyyyy back now lol. I hate to think. My Baitcaster, still in use, which I got on the advice given in one of his articles is 30 this week, I am 52. That alone has made me a lifelong fan of Starlo, lol.
@@AndrewFishman great stuff! Although you ARE making me feel old! 😄
@@StarloGetsReel 🤣 Not old, mate. Just more experienced. It is my 52nd next Saturday, I feel it catching up myself lol.
I am a person who never had idols or heroes. You and Buschy however filled the roles of Mentor and for that, you have my thanks. You guys, John Bethune, who I had the pleasure to meet at a casting clinic one year, John Turnbull who I knew at the ANU and taught me to fly fish for carp in Sullivan's creek, I still can't time a double haul for the life of me lol.
Those guys were gentlemen. I hope to one day fish with you and have as much fun as I did with those legends.
@@AndrewFishman Yeah, he's a top bloke who if you meet him in person, will take his time to break down everything in easy to follow steps.
Fantastic session Steve 👏
Sure was!
It's nice to see you still get excited to catch even when you have got so meney in your time it's what keeps fishos coming back nice work .
For sure! My hands still shake… every time!
I love these videos mate. Please never stop making bream content
Thanks heaps, Ben! Don't worry, while ever I can still hold a rod I'll be chasing bream... and hopefully making YT videos about it! 😉
Thanks Steve! I’m looking forward to Part 2!
Thank YOU!
There's definitely something to having that style of pedal on your kayak. I love the reverse on my Hobie but it's a pain in the arse switching from forward to reverse.
Yes, must say, instant switching is very addictive. I’d struggle without it.
Loved it, and loved how you keep showing everyone that squidgies are still and always are worth throwing!
Thanks Michael!
In the south we call Bluegills by the name Bream sometimes. I enjoy seeing fishing in places all over the world :) Subbed
Thanks for the great feedback! Yes, the term "bream" (pronounced either 'brim' or 'breem') gets used for a wide range of deep-bodied fish all around the world. Our Aussie "bream" are in the same family as your saltwater sheepshead and porgy. Tight Lines... I'll check out your channel! 👍
Great video Starlo. Well presented and informative as usual. Great to see your genuine enjoyment of fishing and your respect for the fish.
Thank you, Jim!
Awesome video bud
Thank you, chon! 👍
Wow Steve that was some fishing session, your adrenalin must of been on fire. Pleasure to watch, thank you for sharing, great adventure.
Thanks for watching and for your positive comments, Len.
Wow what a session Steve! Amazing fishing, and I love the longer format by the way... :)
Thanks mate! Yes, quite a session. Wish I'd taken the fly rod!

Brilliant.
Thanks!
@@StarloGetsReel Steve, watching this video and the one on Lake Macquarie surprised me. The systems seemed to be really healthy compared to about 20 years ago. Older, larger fish and more of them. Maybe those two great sessions were just an exception but It made me reflect on all of the work that everyone did to remove commercial fishing from so many of NSW estuaries, back then. Seems like it paid off :).
Happy to shout you a beer anytime - Im just a little further up the coast - one day. Really enjoyed the video - nicely done, not to mention some nice fish.
Thanks heaps for that!
Some awesome chunky black bream there Starlo. Great session!
Cheers!
Epic session mate, happy for you.
Glad you enjoyed it
That sure was some great footage, I was hooked and on board the whole way ☺️
Very nice work mate! I’m learning so much from you and enjoying the lush footage to boot. And yes the fish are beautiful animals. Interesting point that bream stay tight in the structure until the sun drops after which they venture a bit further out. Thanks muchly
Cracker bream! Love how docile they are once you lift them out of the water.
One of the nice things about blacks.
Top session and well put together video. Some beautifully conditioned bream there.
Thanks for that!
Hi Starlo. Fish on mate WOOHOO
👍
What a great session! Thanks for the entertainment, education and inspiration!
No worries, Alf! Thanks for the great feedback.
Excellent video thanks Starlo.
Thanks for your feedback, David!
Great fishing starlo, very much appreciated for the techniques !
Thanks, Seth!
Tight lines Steve!
Thanks mate!
Never get tired of watching lovely Bream looks like I'm back to the tackle shop have you done any think on setting your drag properly if so where will I find it I find it very easy to follow your instructions thanks again.👍👍
Thanks for that! No, I haven’t done anything specific on setting the drag… but I should! Thanks for the suggestion.
That was amazing mate ...thanks !
Cheers! 👍
5:20 - That terrible cast I was thinking, Oh, nice cast, he's fishing out wide to not disturb the fish in on the snags when you said "Bad cast " lol. I am pleased I was vindicated 2 cranks later.
Spot on, Andrew!
Great fish that just sit for you like they know they are going back
True!
Loved the video Starlo. Very hard to beat a kayak session in an estuary I reckon!
Agreed! Thanks.
Love you videos just purchased a 1-3kg Tcurve rod and was wondering what brand of braid I should match it up with a 1000 Vanford
Thanks! I’ve had a good run from the 8-carrier version of Shimano’s Kairiki braid. It doesn’t wear as well or last as long as PowerPro, but it’s thinner, more supple and better suited to “finesse” applications such as lure fishing for bream, trout, etc.
I hands down love your video's Steve, especially Bream on Lures. Your manner is only rivalled by your skill. I was dumbfounded by that fish you hooked after the slightest of tap's on the slack line at pause. That was a cracking session and it's evident in the video how much you enjoyed it. I would love to know what knot you prefer for your mainline to trace connection ? I've double checked your content and only found knots for terminal tackle. Thanks for sharing this video 👍
Thanks so much, Ross! I'll be going into more detail in coming parts, but I'm a big fan of the FG knot for those connections... that said, I'll happily tie a Double Uni out on the water in the heat of battle! ;)
Thanks for the feedback Steve. Unfortunately I haven't been able to master the FG in light lines but the Double Uni, well I read about that in a particular book a few years back.......
Nothing beats weedless rubber. Long time fan. Get Bushy back on with you
Cheers! 👍
Great vid!
Thanks, Mark!
Great video once again 👏👏
Thanks again, Steven!
amazing session champion,
Thank you! Yes, it was a cracker.
Great vid Steve. Very immersive
Thanks for that!
Great vid mate 👌🏼
Cheers!
I had a hobie outback and always got a few flatty or bream every session. Since going back to boats with electrics it's become so much harder. There's a lot to be said about kayak fishing. catch rates are almost 'easy' even.
Yep!
Starlo you need to get down here to Ansons bay - we will take you up there on the Hobies - hunt for the 50cm plus bream
Love Ansons. Some cracker bream in there. But I'll stick to the Native Watercraft. ;)
Great viewing Starlo, thank you.
What is your view on using heavy leaders like 8-10lb and still getting bites? Or would you prefer to go as light as conditions and terrain allow for?
Thanks! I believe you’ll usually get more bites the lighter you go, but there’s no point going so light you start losing lots of fish. I regularly use 8, 10 and sometimes even 12 pound leaders on bream in really heavy country. I accept I’ll get a few less bites but I’d rather hook one and get it out than hook four and lose them all. 👍
Thanks
Thank you so much!!!
Those were absolute slabs. Here in Oklahoma we'd be frying those guys up with a side of hush puppies and coleslaw.
We do some of that too! But only where appropriate.
Awesome vid mate, well done! Any chance of sharing a link for the hardbody lure you were using?
Thanks Peter! Check out all Ray's lures and order them direct via his Facebook page: facebook.com/RTBroughton-Lures-126674125519096
Great fishing mate didn’t get the name of the river or Lake you’re were at
Glad you liked it. I tend not to specify particular waterways, especially small, pressure-sensitive ones. But these techniques are applicable anywhere bream live.
Lots of helpful tips from you session. Is a 65 or 95mm prawn lure are you using?
Thanks Eddie! I'm not sure... I'll have to measure it! I'll let you know...
Hey Starlo been loving the gets reel vids, what model poison ardena are you using in this video, I’m looking to buy my first high end rod and like the look of it, mainly used for throwing plastics.
Cheers
Great conditions-no wind makes it so much easier
For sure. Luckily we get a fair bit of that most winters: still but cold!
Great fishing session, What make of Kayak?
Thanks! It’s a Native Watercraft Ultimate.
Great video Starlo ,is that water tidal or landlocked. Thanks
Thanks! That one alternates between being tidal and non-tidal. Was closed (non tidal) when I had that session.
@@StarloGetsReel Do you find the fish are harder to catch when no tidal?
@@michaelosullivan1248 sometimes. It can be harder to find them because they’re location isn’t dictated by tidal movement.
Which jig heads are you using there Starlo on the squidgie prawn? 👍🏼
Those were Decoy Nail Weightjigheads. Hard to find. But you can rig them snag-proof on a standard jig head, too. I show how in Part 2 of my Masterclass. Here: starlofishing.lpages.co/bream-masterclass-part-2/
Any suggested colours for a Broughton lure. Would love to try a few next time in Merimbula, hopefully November
Anything natural and green or brown-based, at least in clear water.
What a session Steve ! They were some magic bream what brand weedless jig heads do you use ?
Are those shimmy hard bodies available in shops or online at all ?
I'll go into more detail on all the gear in Part 2 but I think they were Decoy jig heads. I use a few different ones. And yes, you can buy RTBroughton Lures direct from Ray via his Facebook page: facebook.com/RTBroughton-Lures-126674125519096
How are you liking that Anarchy?
Love it!
Nice arvo on the water. How would you rate the stealth factor of using a yak for this style of fishing?
Yep, yaks are great. You seem to be able to get pretty close to the fish in them.
@@StarloGetsReel I have noticed that if you are quiet a fish spooked in the shallows will often stop a few metres away, sit still and watch you. cheers
@@bobclark4994 true!
This type of fish can not find in the USA water.
No. But similar to both your sheephead and porgy.
What kayak are you using starlo.
It’s a Native Watercraft Ultimate FX. I love it!
@@StarloGetsReel thanks mate, I definitely think I need one for my bream fishing. Loving the content mate 🎣
Could list the gears you are using
All spelt out in detail in Part 2: ua-cam.com/video/Mt9yAFwa5-I/v-deo.html
Do you ever use baitcasters?
Lots, but not for bream. The lures are mostly too light…
Are they black bream
Sure are.
Is that on the 10lb leader ?
10 pound on the plastic.
