Bream Fishing Tips |
Bream Fishing Rods And What To Look ForBy Bob IvesIf you want to get the most out of your fishing, having the right fishing gear is of the utmost importance. This includes fishing reels, line, sinkers, baits and of course the most important part, the fishing rod. There are different types of rods for all kinds of fishing and situations. If you are into bream, there are a couple of good bream fishing rods that you might want to have in your possession. Just like the right screw driver will make you a better carpenter, the right bream fishing rod will make you a better bream fisherman. When purchasing a fishing rod, you'll want to consider the length. Does it fit your height and will you be able to easily cast it? The longer the rod you can manage, generally the further you will be able to cast your bait. Also, longer rods are good for 'flipping' baits into tight spots that are not too far away from you. Most rods come in fiberglass or graphite. Most fishermen agree that graphite rods are more sensitive and help to telegraph the bite of a fish better, as well as to help feel rocks and cover on the bottom where you are fishing. When it comes to some types of fishing, like topwater or situations where you might have to set a hook from a very long distance, a graphite rod might work well because it will be less flexible and help to get a better hook set. When it comes to bream fishing, you probably won't have to worry about top water, nor will you have to worry about setting hooks from a long distance. The latter is because quite often an Australian bream will help you out and set the hook for you by turning tail and heading away from you. When lure fishing, a good bream fishing rod is light to medium soft action graphite rod around 1.8 metres line class to match 1, 2 and 4kg are perhaps the most popular and work well when surf fishing. These make it easier to place small baits more precisely in particular areas. They also provide greater sensitivity in lure retrieval and to help you detect a bite, because often an Australian bream will kind of nibble and pump your bait a bit before committing to it. Of course, after it does take the offering, it will likely run with it. Now, if you are on the search for bigger bream, you should consider fishing in rougher territory, like oyster racks encrusted with barnacles, reefy outcrops in the shallows, fallen trees in the water, and eddy ridden rocks. Big bream live here and are quite often overlooked or just plain ignored because they're not that convenient to get to. But this is some very good fishing and will require heavier line and a heavier bream fishing rod. This calls for lines of 4 kg to 6 kg lines with an abrasion resistant trace of up to 10kg, and the rod and reel combo needs to be heavier and stiffer than the norm, heavy enough to turn a big bream back towards you in a hurry. So, unlike a bass fisherman who may sport 10 or 15 rods, someone
interested in Australian bream fishing, could be well equipped with just
a couple of bream fishing rods: a good medium soft action graphite rod
around 1.8 meters for surf and normal fishing, and a heavy slower action
rod for those industrial strength moments when you might trying to pull
a wiggly bream out from the rocks or a sunken tree.

"When it comes to bream fishing, you probably won't have to worry about top water."
Dont worrie about top water? you havent done your research, One of the best ways to catch bream in the warmer months. Walk the dog style and cicarder type lures are great and used often in top Australian tournaments. They are also great for bank fishing when used as a searching lure. you might get a boil or two but no hook up soetimes.. Change to a sub-surface style lure like a small shallow or deep diver and chances are you will get that bite, Using these two techniques together is deadly.
