Wow WK a 34.5cm Stonebream is a nice one specially on that light outfit. Any Blacktail bigger than 26cm is fun to catch the way you do it

Thanks Willie, yeah according to SASAA thats a 1kg fish, was really hard to land and he almost burnt me off a few times, eventually used the incoming tide to land him on the rocks, was so happy! And those Blacktails give you a nice rev!!!

PH it was unbelievably satisfying, such a jol! Dont get me wrong the light tackle is awesome, even a 10cm fish gives you a good run for your money and when you are able to land that bigger fish its the best feeling in the world but I have lost some bigger Kob, Bronze Bream, Stonebream, Leeries and a big Flatfish so it has its disadvantages but thats what makes me come back for more

Dont want to hijack your site. It is not easy to catch a stonebream and I have found for some strange reason that when I put the cotton on my bait (sardine) I leave some cotton hanging looks untidy but I got a lot of stonebream that way. When I put the cotton on neatly nothing

No worries Willie, all I have found that it is very tough to catch Stonebream that was only my second landed one in that spot in 7 years... When the tide is really low you can see quite a few of them swimming but they wont take a bait... The two fish I caught were kgs and 1kg the first was on bloodworm and the second on sandprawn... I must fish that spot about 15 times a year and the Stonebream seem to be very finicky when it comes to bait! I think they prefer a natural or moving bait which is why they eat your "untidy" baits, I dont know they are strange fish

WK fantastic stuff mate, seems sticking to your guns & going light really does pay off for you!

on a awesome quick fire trip, :shre: the great report +cred.

That just shows how different areas fish differently. Many spots along the natal south coast stone bream come so thick I have caught 20 in under an hour blacktail on the other hand especially size ones are quite difficult

Paulo, it does pay off and I really enjoy it if I loose a fish every now and then because I fish too light I dont mind! But thanks Im going back this weekend for 2 days so I will se what i can do then

Very true, i just guess it depends on the location more than the bait... All I know is there are some huge Stonebream at this spot but they dont chow chokka, sardine, black mussel and every other bait you throw at them

What you need is a secret weapon of some sort.... Find the stone bream's cryptonite!

Been looking for 7 years J, although I think Sand Prawn could work again I never fished with Sandprawn there before so i am going to give it another go this weekend maybe i can get another one

The thing i dont't like about sandprawn though is that they are taken off your hook so easily. I assume the pink prawn you are talking about is the normal prawn that you can buy at PnP or 7/11. Some guys even swear by klip prawn. If you can find klip prawn give them a go, as they are tough....

Have you tried red bait?

WalkersKiller · « **Reply #37 on:** July 12, 2011, 05:32:22 PM »

@ J Sand Prawn (Cracker Shrimp) is a deadly bait and in that area you get a take about every 5 throws and its less than 3 meters from where you put your stuff to the fishing area, I dont mind it at all... When i fish in the river i use sand or mud prawn and I cotton them on nicely which generally take about 10 pecks from the smaller fish before its off... I have tried pink prawn off those rocks but had limited success... I rig the sand prawn through the tale twice, their tales are quite tough and it works very well, I just use a smaller hook so I can hook anything that takes the bait...

@ Brad, I have tried to look for it in the area I fish but have not found any...
