Welcome back to The Bream Fishing Project! In this episode, we head to Tuggerah Lakes for the Action Fishing Tournament held on May 10, 2025. It was an incredibly tight competition, with podium spots decided on countback and some big fish hitting the decks early in the session.

Joining host Andrew Death (2019 Hobie Kayak Fishing World Champion) are the top three finishers from the round:

  • 🥇 Rick King – 1st Place – 109.5cm

  • 🥈 Ryan Honeybrook – 2nd Place – 107.5cm (on countback)

  • 🥉 Aaron Enright – 3rd Place – 107.5cm (on countback)

  • In this episode, we break down the strategies, lure choices, and critical bite windows that helped these anglers find success in challenging conditions. Rick and Ryan even jump on together for a lively chat about fishing side-by-side, swapping tips, and chasing down those metre-plus totals.

    Highlights in This Episode:
