General Info
The canals on either side of Mandurah Road here produce good quality and quantities of bream. Fish in close to structure like jetties, pylons and moored boats. Whether you fish it from shore or by boat/kayak is up to you, however fishing from a boat/kayak opens up more options. If fishing from shore, find a vacant block or basically anywhere you can access the water. Flick small bream lures around structure and you should be able to get a few hits. In failing that you can revert back to baits. Fleshy baits like strips of Tailor fillets or half mulies work very well. There are blowies so don't be afraid to up your bait size. A running sinker rig fished with a size 0 or 1 ball sinker and a 2/0-3/0 hook is ideal for using bigger baits. Remember the slow growth rates of black bream and don't keep too many, if any.
