{{+1}}Bream{{-1}}
{{start}}
Bream are a species that grow slowly. By the time they reach the minimum legal size they are typically around 5 or 6 years old. So please consider catch and release.{{end}}
{{+1}}Flathead{{-1}}
{{start}}
Flathead are definitely one of the easier species of estuary fish to catch on fly. They will respond to a wide range of traditional and specialist flies and you will catch them as a by catch when your fishing small flies (from a flathead's perspective) to species such as bream and whiting and relatively big flies (from a flathead's perspective) even when fishing for barra.{{end}}

These 5 barra above are all over a meter and have been caught in Lake Awoonga over the last 5 weeks on soft plastics that I rigged up in my own very personal way on soft plastics I poured myself in moulds for top pour soft plastics that I finessed and made myself.{{end}}

{{+1}}Alpha Gar – open/top pour soft plastic{{-1}}
{{start}}
These are big soft plastics for big barra. I make them in just 6 colours and fish them in Awoonga Dam which is of course a freshwater impoundment. I also fish them in coastal barra waters including Gladstone Harbor and the Narrows.{{end}}
