Mark Harris:
I was not referring to bream in isolation Brandon  ;) .

That being said I caught a bream on a 150 mm Ocean Pencil..... that's a touch bigger than a Baby Runboh! The bream are very large.

Relative lengths:

Baby Runboh - 145 mm
Ocea Pencil - 150 mm
Mr Joe 35 - 130 mm

I am sure smaller lures like Peter mentions also do well. Casting might be an issue though if you are fishing PE3.

Rob Langridge:
G'Day Robert

I would recommend you get yourself some of the Maria Duplex in the squid colour IKG. These heavy weighted minnows are 31g & 18g & are 80mm long and they make for a super long cast and have an excellent wobble & roll action.

Cheers Rob

Chris Tan:
These are the lures I would bring next year:

Bigfoot, sride, pintails, roosta, some light jigs and spoons, plenty of soft plastics and definitely the Mr Joe

And a few squid jigs!

Brandon Khoo:
I'm going to catch one of these bream, stick a tiny vibe into its mouth and take a photo against a really plain unidentifiable background and then post it on a bream forum claiming I caught it near Tom Ugly's Bridge! The next weekend, there are going to be a hundred anglers there

Chris, do you think they will take a big crankbait?

Mark Harris:
You are evil Brandon  8) .

For what is worth Brandon, I fished twice in Oman  for while with a fairly large Eco-Gear crankbait ((once for big Bluefish and once for targeting Bream), caught nothing and went back to stickbaits.  Some of that might have been my own general lack of familiarity with using crankbaits.
