Sunday afternoon 34cm and 33cm Pikey Bream by using prawn bait on Texas-rig

It's not easy to catch a pikey bream on lure in the day time.
But I wanted to eat deep fried breams for dinner tonight.
I could catch a dinner sized pikey bream with the Texas rig by using barramundi-fishing rod and bait-cast reel.
Basically, the Texas rig is a technique used for fishing with soft plastic lures.

I used an edible raw prawn on the Texas rig this time.

The Texas rig is much bigger than normal bream fishing hooks.
Still, you can catch them.
The fish-window for the nice dinner sized pikey bream is very short.
The water current shouldn't be weak at the outgoing tide.

34cm nice sized pikey bream

Normally, these fishing gears were used for  catching a barramundi.

34cm and 33cm were very good for dinner in size.

Flathead took a prawn bait on the Texas rig also.
