Re: Any prawns about?
I think the prawn run usually starts about mid December. Probably still a bit early but every year's a bit different.

Re: I need a solution to a soft plastic fishing problem
Use lighter braid. I used to have the same problem trying to cast with mono line. Switched to braid (15lb - coz I didn't know any better) and instantly casting distance went up heaps. Then I went down to 8lb and I can confidently say that casting distance has doubled vs mono.

Re: I need a solution to a soft plastic fishing problem
If you are just after flatties, then simple solution is slide a ball sinker above the jig head or use a running sinker rig.

Re: More of yarra bream and learning curve

Re: Docklands 14/06/21
The docks bream usually fire up a few days after heavy rain. They will hang around the bottom this time of the year, used to do really well on them with metal vibes teabagging the pylons after dark. My best sessions have been when the water is like coffee

Re: Docklands 14/06/21
With the metal blades, you can buy the really cheap ones online, they all work. Just drop it down next to a pylon, let it sink to the bottom, then wait about 5 seconds and slowly lift up your rod. You'll feel the lure vibrating. Let the lure drop back down to the bottom, wait another 5-10 seconds an...
