Fishing Structure For Bream and Flathead on Perth's Swan River (Land Based)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- In this video, I fat shame several fish and a seemingly very hungry man disguised as a stock image attempts to steal my bream. Always an interesting time fishing Perth's Swan River.
Somehow this took twice as long as any other i've made to edit, so I hope you enjoy it.
Land Based Bream fishing on lures

The flog trying to take the fish out of your hand 👊
King of the swan ✅ another awesome video. You really do have the light lure fishing mastered, man that dude trying to take your fish, poor form haha glad you didn’t pass it over, gota catch ya own haha 👊🏼
haha thanks man. He was truly a man on a mission to say the least aha
Old mate would have kept it if it was sitting at 11cm ffs
Nice session bro, those breams are descent size aye, good fun. Good vid bro. Keep it up.!!!
thanks mate!
I've fished that first spot (and over the other side of the bridge, but it's snaggy) and it's pretty reliable for decent bream. Got a 43cm tailor a few months ago on a ZX30 vibe, don't ask me how. Also lost a Cavy Salty Passion lure on first cast quite close to the shore, so whoever finds that, good luck to ya!!
I just cannot get soft plastics to work at all, I've tried those same ones you have as well as Slim Swimz, Grubbz and Squidgies Wrigglers on light setups (2500 Miravel on Infeet 601). Not sure what I'm doing wrong... I'm trying to vary my retrieve speed with small twitches and keeping the lure close to the bottom, but I haven't yet caught a fish on one. It's a bummer.
Nice mate!been looking for a bream fishing spot for a while,I guess I’ll just have to try many different spots to finally catch some,great job on not giving that guy the bream,so they can grow bigger and make more little breams that are gonna grow into stonkers 🎣
thanks mate! 100%, just a case of trying new spots. I used to (and still do) spend hours on google earth looking for different structure, just kind of overlooked the cbd/ East Perth area. Yeah for sure agreed with putting the bream back, have never kept a bream myself. Fan of fresh fish but would rather go to the maccas down the road aha.
@@LightTackleAnglerWAhahah cheers
Good stuff man!!! Living through your catches right now haha
thanks brother! i follow you on insta- you're probably the only honest/egoless fisherman on there, genuinely refreshing
Thanks man, really appreciate that! If your ever keen for a flick let me know i am always out there :) @@LightTackleAnglerWA
Nice vid, thanks, the more I watch your convincing me to give the Swan a fish for some bream, don't think I've tried them, and don't seem to be catching a hell of a lot at the marinas recently and am keen to try might light rod I recently purchased a go, thanks.
yeah for sure! really fun fish to chase. takes a bit to fully figure out how to catch them on lures but a bit of persistence goes a long way
Your a top bloke mate. Awesome videos mate
thanks mate
Finally! You posted a vid! Your vids always make my day you are so good
haha only posted a week ago I think but thanks for the support legend! comments like this are why I didn't stop after making a few videos
Hey dude, just wanted to say I absolutely love your videos and have been trying to use them to teach me how to use lures.
Since young I’ve only learnt how to use bait for bream. Would love to see a more in depth video of your setup if that’s important and how to properly work a lure for a noob like myself 😂😂.
I’ve purchased a few small minnow lures as recommended by tackle store workers. Casting to structure with a slow retrieval. Haven’t had much success this way tho
hey mate, thanks a lot! No worries, I can go into more detail in an upcoming video! Are you using fluorocarbon leader? Obviously can't know for sure exactly what might be leading to a lack of fish for you at the moment, but I think the most common mistake people make is not using thin fluoro leader- I never really use more than 6lb (usually use 4lb). I also use at least 6 or 7 feet of leader, in fact usually quite a bit more but a rod's length is a good start. Also, rarely use anything heavier than a 1/12th jighead. I sometimes even use 1/28th or even 1/40th on certain lures- but with most plastics, 1/16th is a 'happy medium' i guess. Hope this helps.
Lol that guy was hungry😂. Just found your channel man and enjoyed every vid I've watched so far👌, btw I think I may have come across you the other day on the other side by the bait fishos? (I recognise that combo haha) I was the one lets say "shocked" by the stench of the underpass and let out the "holy f, oh hell no" lounder than it sounded in my head 😂😂😂. You've definitely got the part right about it being a suprisingly healthy environment below the water line for how rank it seems thats for sure 😂, so many chunky bream through that whole area even with all the baito activity (as demonstrated perfectly in this vid haha). Good stuff man enjoying the channel alot so far 🙏🏽, keen to see more. 🤙
haha yeah mate, was an insanely keen fella. I remember you, yeah- definitely made your opinions on the smell pretty clear. Actually realised I recognized you after you left, are you and your brother tidal blues fishing? Wasn't sure at the time. If so, I follow you guys on insta, great work :). And yeah, after persisting for years with fishing for bream downstream, the consistency of that spot is definitely higher than it seems at first glance. Almost like a different fish at times compared to the super smart bream around the yacht clubs I used to fish all the time.
@@LightTackleAnglerWA Haha yea man, lol, the smell of the place hit hard 😂, I know the homeless/junkie population is pretty wild in that area, safe to say I wasn't feeling that spot at all 😂. Shame that was our first encounter haha, awell. How did you end up going anyway? We got a bunch of flathead and tailor at the other (less smelly 😆) bridge as usual but surprisingly not many bream that morning.
@@CoreyHill110 haha fair enough, that was the 2nd day from this video so caught quite a few bream under the other bridge
@@LightTackleAnglerWA Damn that's super interesting, we fished there from around 8-10am, then a short session again from 5-6pm and didn't get a single bream haha, just goes to show hey this time of year with the fish spawning when a school shows up its on, but if they're too busy doing their business it can be very off.😅
And I totally understand your point earlier about them seeming like different fish from downstream/cleaner water!! I fish Mandurah often particularly around the canals and man it's a completely different game! Significantly smarter fish and they fight just so much harder, swan bream aren't very smart or partially sporting but the sheer numbers at times definitely make up for it when you just want to catch a few fish.
@@CoreyHill110 yeah for sure, I guess that's part of the appeal of bream fishing though, never guaranteed- the challenge of it and the fact its never a guaranteed success. Yeah have heard bream down that way fight super hard. Have always overlooked Mandurah actually, very keen for a few trips down this summer to see what I can get stuck into (Not necessarily bream).
Another great vid! Quite like the voice over style during editing 👍🏼
What made you pick the twitch freak over the grub freak?
thanks mate! I just figured if im spending that much on a rod I want something that'll do a bit of everything. I was also doing a lot of fishing in yacht clubs with mussel vibes at the time so the shorter length and slightly slower taper suited well
Great session mate! Agree totally about the lures. Only reason I buy different ones is to switch it up on days when the fish are being picky! Also, wonder how long stock photo guy was standing behind that pylon for 😳🤣
very true. haha yeah- homie was lurkin'
Great video gees some people need to learn not to take under size fish 🙂
Would love the opportunity to meet up again get some lines wets around the swan river, love your content
thanks a lot mate!
The only thing I'd give him would be a kick up the arse ,always put them back 😮
haha
7:10 - your so right ! enjoying your up-loads & appreciate your time & keeping it clear ! can you pls do a review on your Millerod V Infeet - your thoughts ? and braid you like using brand ..cheers
hey mate, thanks a lot! Both fantastic rods. The main practical difference between the 2 rods is that the millerod can do everything pretty much flawlessly. The 'multi-loading blank' is more than just a marketing term, it really does have a crisp tip which is great for precision and working plastics and jerkbaits, but the rod has a lot of 'give' when you need to keep trebles in (but isnt so flimsy that you have no power). The infeet is fantastic, and If i was just using plastics, there would be a very insignificant difference in the number of fish i'd be able to catch with it. They aren't super stiff like the td blacks so you can use hardbodies and not drop many fish, but probably more than the twitchfreak especially around structure. For a long time I used the regular commercial brands(shimano,daiwa) for braid in 6lb and they did the trick. More recently, I use more premium stuff like Tasline and I just respooled the other day with varivas, both lines in 0.4PE. It's really just a little 1%er but they are a bit smoother to cast and have a higher breaking strain for the diameter. I actually really like the tasline, but it stains in dirty water which isnt great for upriver breaming. In general, once you spend past a certain amount on fishing, the benefit is more to general enjoyment of use, rather than any significant difference in number of fish you're able to catch.
Appreciate your detailed reply & time - I am down in Eildon Vic & target trout only- Japanese spoons 0.5 to 5 gram spoons ( U/L all the way )& ( addicted to japanese gear - you get what you pay for in high end gear & you reward yourself and take your game to next level & enjoy it . I use SMITH rods ( collector - lol ) 1to 6 gram & got a Yamaga blue current 3 :6'9 - i am in the market for the Blade Freak & after seeing your up-load the Twich ! ( thanks more $$ - i just don't like one thing ! that it's made in china ) *your rod needs an Exist - just saying ! just to take it next level ( when you can ! you will get what i mean ...when you use one , it's a dream & you will never back to the dark side ! i used to use castaway - now i am all 'Varivas- Avani salwater finesse x8 0.3 - give this a go ! thank-you again & keep up the good work & motivation - Realism .
@@trevlin9516 nice to know I've reached the Eastern states aha- very jealous of the freshwater fishing you have over there. Wish the missus had the same idea on the exist aha, maybe one day! Yeah agreed re: high end gear- it's not necessary to catch fish but definitely last longer and does the job that little bit better. I don't talk about my gear too much because I don't want anyone to feel like they need to spend $1000 to catch fish, but am definitely into the more technical sides of fishing gear myself!
all of those spots you went to I have been multiple times. Tried everything. lures, bait soft plastic hard plastic absolutley anything. Caught nothing😭 love to know how you do it
u should do some mulloway fishing near perth cbd it was be such a great video!❤❤❤🎉
yeah mate, have been thinking of trying some new things. In a month or 2 I should have more flexibility with when I go fishing, so things like mulloway will hopefully be more likely when I can pick and choose my fishing times. Mulloway are definitely a special fish!
love to see some good local videos, what bridge are you fishing at there mate?
👍
thanks mate
Can you gidgee in the swan? I know some spots you can’t. Thanks!
me and my mate saw you fishing today
Where is that spot? Nice fish good job with all those fish
thanks mate its all just east of the city
3:46 i got a brand new lure first cast at that spot snagged on a trolly, 15 bucks gone lmao
Old mate was super rude! I wouldn't have given it to him even if it was 30cm. Bream are too long lived and have a rough enough time as with recruitment in degraded systems.
yeah, that was another reason I didn't give him the fish haha. Absolutely agree- just saw you're an ecologist so no wonder you know what you're talking about haha. I'm definitely a subscriber to the idea of treating bream as solely a sports fish, but often wonder if other species are overlooked in this regard as a result of not having the same tournament scene / reputation. Wrote this comment in a rush so probably makes no sense haha.
What size grub ya using ??
@@thejoker395 2.5'
Aww nice thanks dude
What size plastic do you normally use for brim, I'm struggling to catch much atm
hey mate, generally 2.5 inch is perfect but 2 inch can be just as effective.
Thank you very much, love ur videos keep it up legend.
3 min , ive been to that place for lunch. womder what fish u get
brum
what lb leader do you use for bream, any advice for leader i cant even get them to bite on 6lb!
hey mate, usually 4lb. I also use at least a rod's length of leader, but usually more.
what is the best soft plastic for black bream
no best plastic in my opinion, but z man grubz are a staple / time proven plastic. I like motor oil but any darker colour will work
yo what is your combo
hey mate what bridge is this?
main bridge near East Perth
New to Perth..care to share the location of that bridge ?
causeway
@@LightTackleAnglerWA Sorry mate that doesn't help me at all.
@@gregnagy7569 thats the bridge mate not much else to say
You should've gave him the fish brother c'mon
