Episode 152: WATA Boat Round, Peel Inlet, June 15, 2025

WA BREAM Series — Boat Round 2 (Peel/Mandurah) | 15 June 2025 We’re off to Western Australia to recap WA BREAM Series — Boat Round 2 on the Peel/Mandurah system (Sunday 15 June 2025). Andrew breaks down bite windows, tides and the winning patterns before rolling into angler interviews with the top three teams. Results & Guests 1st — Team Stinger (4.380 kg, Big Bream 1.27 kg): Alex Griesdorf & Ben Oaks detail a canals bite that shifted from Z-Man grubs early to brim prawn (Decoy Worm5/offset) as conditions changed, with last-minute upgrades sealing the win. 2nd — Team B1 & B2 (4.050 kg, Big Bream 1.62 kg): Joseph & Jenny Gardner on a four-fish bag anchored by a 1.62 kg Big Bream. No pre-fish; methodical work on lower-Murray snags, brim prawn + Decoy Worm5 on 6–8 lb leaders, shaded timber, and bird-sign clues. 3rd — Team Dragon (3.740 kg): Bill Bland (with Rob) milked bridge pylons, mixing Gulp Crabby on 1/16–1/32 jigheads and River2Sea Baby Vibes. Smart boat handling around wood vs concrete pylons delivered a near-kilo average. Conditions (as discussed) Fish Activity Wheel: 56 Minor bite: 9:42–11:12 a.m. Tides: High 12:20 p.m. (0.64 m); Low 11:44 p.m. (0.28 m) Tackle & Techniques Mentioned Brim prawn/weedless (Decoy Worm5), Z-Man Grub 2.5", Gulp Crabby, River2Sea Baby Vibe, Hurricane prawn; 6–8 lb leaders; bridge pylons, canals, shaded snags; patient bites and deliberate boat positioning to pull fish clear.
