Delivery System for Big Bream

Hi Dudes,

This is the last installment for my big dirty bream in deep water blog. We have looked at how to target em, on what lures to do it and what techniques are favourable.... Now we will look at the delivery system...

By this i mean how do i present my lures for maximum benefit? Simply drifting is the prime method. Working light finesse lures in deep water takes a heap of patience. Waiting for lures to sink the desired depth will effectively waste a heap of fishing time in a given session. Im all about having my lures in the strike zone for as long as possible. Makes sense really. No good having your lure where the fish aint.

Drifting will allow you to cover ground without the need to fan your casts around. Watch out though as too much drift and your lures will raise out of the strikezone. Too slow a drift and you wont cover any ground at all.

Another factor to consider is placing your lure in fishy water. What i mean here is look for healthy markings on the sounder before you deploy your lures. No good just pulling up somewhere and hoping for the best. This may work and at times is a good way to go for a search and destroy mission but i woundnt advise it for consistent success.

For full details and pics keep an eye out for Fishing World Mag early next year. The article will detail this technique in greater detail than i can here.

Tomorrow...the weekends Jewie onslaught...remember 6 jewies in 2 days...dont miss out!
