      Hey Peter, I was using the sugi Berry colour in this video. I really like this colour especially in Port Stephens.
      I honestly like a very slow retrieval. This lures doesnt need much to get the action going.

      Hey, yeah I have been out fishing as much as I can, which seems to only be once a month at the moment. Life has really changed the last 12 months.
      Had a really good session couple weeks ago, finally catching that 40cm + bream.
      Managed a 40cm, 43cm and a new pb of 46cm bream all within 5mins of each other. Wish I was recording.

    • @ChrispyyWings
      @ChrispyyWings  2 года назад

      You will still catch fish mate, throw the samaki vibe in 70mm fork tail and flathead and bream will smash it.
      Soft plastic with a 1/8th or heavier jighead will also work. I would throw a bait junkie minnow or zman slimswim in 2' -3' inch size
      I usually fish 3m or less with light soft plastic as that's the style I like to fish. I haven't mastered deeper water fishing yet so i couldn't push you in the right direction confidently.
