[Hellcat Dan]

just wondering if any one has tried pink grubbing at rabby bay or in brissy river and bay islands i have been doing a lot down the gold coast and having heap of success on bream and queenies me and a mate tried mud on sat we only had 1 follow and nothing at all

[Plastic Man]

[Hellcat Dan]

we have to go down coast and i will show haw it is done mate it is the best fun you will get hooked need to talk to jb about getting them in as every on is sold out and not getting them in

[Feral]

stoopid question: What the hell is Pink Grubbing?

[Cowfish13]

I second that question:silly:

[Mack_attack]

"Soft plastic wise, pink grubbing is most effective, using a worm hook and an Ecogear Grass Minnow M in Okiami. It acts like an injured swimming shrimp on the topwater."

you can also use squidgie bugs dont use worm hook they make plastic not sit right in water

if you put s factor on it they just can not get enough of the thing

definitely works, exciting too watch bream fight over it, takes a bit to understand how to improve your strike rate. more small to average size fish caught near the shore line, then every once in awhile the mother of all breams smashes it from under the jettys/pontoons. seen tomcat dan catch 35-40cms on them. Maybe an idea to use technique to get first 5 in the bream torno this coming weekend Hint...Hint

any idea how to do that with a baitcaster set up....lol

just stiring.

Kevin, this isn't the thread for you to get involved in .

You can use any colour Grass Minnow, they all work. It's just Kris Hickson used on in an AFC round on the Hawksbury and it was Pink, now every top water plastic has to be Pink. The only reason it's Pink is so he can see it. If you want a good Shrimp imitation be sure to check out the new Ecogear PX45.

Does the Px45 work like a towadi?

[kevinchen19870316]

probably, but with more splash i think

[kriso]

i read retrieving this lure walk the dog style produces the most hits from bream. short article in the december qfm.

[Hellcat Dan]

all the coulour do work in the grass minnows i would be interested how that ecogear works on the gold coast bream i am going to constrate on hard bodys next month do you know were to get them

[fishyman]

Anywhere around mored boats try to use brown coloured chubbys, they mimick the breams main food source, chocolate hostages flushed out from the loos onboard.

[Bommie]

its true, bream love sh@#, thats why I won't eat bream

[Hellcat Dan]

me and a mate fished gold coast last week and a guy said you dont eat them do you my mate asked why and he said he feeds them his dog dropings and then through some in the bream went wild over it

[kriso]

im might eat some vindaloo next time before i go out and berley the water up ahahahahaa!

The PX45 is worked just like a Smith Towadi or Tiemco Pencil, walk the dog. Though the PX45, VX35/45, SX40/48 and CK40 have all been designed by Ecogear's Japanese Pro Staff specifically for Bream angling. All other Japanese Hardbodies you often see used on Bream are designed for Trout, which is why they often come with soft hooks which the Bream demolish. This is why all Ecogear lures come with Owner ST36's as they are the most common treble for Bream. But you still have to be careful as these hooks are a freshwater hook so a quick wash down and drying after use is essential if you want to keep them tip top. Keep an eye out for the new Ecogear MX48 as well. A new diving Minnow.

Angus, how many of the Bass swallowed the VX? .

Rob, you just couldn't help yourself could you :laugh: .
