This is another huge episode of TheBream Fishing Project.

 

On the Saturday the anglers fished in super calm conditions which then changed to periods of strong wind and rain at different times on the Sunday. The fishing was difficult on both days for different reasons. It was interesting to hear how the anglers adapted to the conditions

 

  In the first interview I spoke with Grayson Fong but we did this with a little twist. You will need to tune into this to see how this played out. We did have a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy it too! However we did get down to business and spoke about lure design and then moved on to talk about how he caught his fish. As usual Grayson has some interesting insights about being a non - boater. At one point Grayson was being out-fished by his boater and he borrowed  a few lures from his boater.  

 

 I then spoke to the winner of The non-boater Division Taka Kawasaki and he went through all the things he did to bring back his  fish and take the win.  This was Taka’s first win and he was happy to share everything  that helped to get the job done.This was Taka’s first visit to The Bream Fishing Project, but he still managed to do two interviews. 

 

  I didn't spoke to the angler in third position in the  boater division, Kris Hickson. Kris  had  just come off the back of third place in the Australian Open and backed it up here with the third place again.  In this conversation you'll hear how he ground it out particularly on the second  day. Kris  then landed a 41 fork bream to anchor his bag and put over 4 1/2 kilos on the scales.

 

In second place in the boat of division was Michael Colotouros. This was the first time I  have spoken to Michael we had a very interesting conversation.  We went through everything from  what lures to how he works them through to rods reels and line combination. Michael has been an amazing angler over the years, in this interview he gave us all some insights into how he achieves his sucess.

 

 Finally in first place, I spoke with Mark Healey who dropped a huge bag on the scales on the Sunday to take the win. This was also the first time I have spoken with Mark and we had an awesome conversation  that I think you will all enjoy. Mark too has been a very successful competition angler over the years and mark also gave us some great insights into how he caught his fish.

 

 This was another fun podcast episode to put together. I got to speak with anglers I've never spoken to before and they were all very giving In what they shared. Thanks again to all the anglers who gave up their time to have a quick chat.
