Land based Bream in Melbourne

[Lawless]

Just wondering where the best land based options are in Melbourne to chase bream on lures. Any tips on technique would be appreciated

[Lawless]

I have heard that Victoria harbour is good for soft plastic fishing. Is parking available there? Any pointers on the best plastics to use would be great.

yeah plenty of paid parking around docklands, either bourke st or new quay saide both fish well around the piers and marinas with little plastic grubs, gulp worms etc. the blades go very well around the pylons down deep too

Hi Lawless
Go back in Saltwater posts to page 11 "Melbourne docklands Bream".Theres a heap of info in there, that encouraged me after reading it, to find similar areas around Sydney , employing some of the same tactics, to good success!With nearly 2000 views and heaps of replies this is a good bream topic to reference.
Hope your doing well with your fishing Jules!
Cheers.

Thanks Tombowler. I am going to school for the week and thought that I might as well pack the rods and have a crack at the inner city bream. I have had a few goes before and they are a challenging fish to catch on lures.

Plenty of good bream in Docklands for spot fishing.

Lures and plastics go well when the water is really clear (not often)
seen guys catch 40+ in a few hours.

Central pier right around to north wharf a best.

they really like bread too if you find the plastics are fishing a bit tough or the water dirty... got to fish the bread without weight and on a small hook that can be hidden in the ball of bread... wont touch it if they can see shiny metal or your line for that matter.
best of luck.
