EP168 - Action Fishing Tournaments – Brooklyn, Hawkesbury River (20 July 2025)

Action Fishing Tournaments – Brooklyn, Hawkesbury (20 July 2025) In this episode we head to Brooklyn on the Hawkesbury with the crew from Action Fishing Tournaments, for a memorable round held on 20 July 2025 and one that won’t be forgotten anytime soon. We break down three very different tournament journeys — each one packed with lessons, timing windows, missed opportunities, upgrades, and one of the most remarkable fish ever landed mid-competition: • Glenn Allen places 3rd with 39, 28.5 and 28.5 cm fish (96 cm total) after a hot early bite window around racks, poles and rock walls. • John Sharp secures 2nd with 30.5, 33 and an impressive 46 cm PB brim for a 109.5 cm bag — taking just three bites all day and converting every single one. • Joshua Richards takes the win with a jaw-dropping 34 / 46 / 51 — totalling 131 cm including a 51 cm yellowfin brim, hooked deep around bridge pylons and landed against all odds. A true unicorn fish. Andrew wraps up with a personal update on training for the Fly Program, discussing a week of walking, physical reset, momentum, and encouragement for anyone wanting to start moving again — even short efforts count and confidence builds quickly. 💛 Support the Show ☕ Buy Me a Coffee — support The Bream Fishing Project 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/AndrewDeath 🎣 ARK GENESIS – 15% OFF with code: BFP Australian-designed, eco-friendly lead-free jig heads & sinkers built for precision, performance & sustainability.
