Spawn Hub

Bream seem to start thinking abut spawning about March and the daddy bream often have their tubercles until late summer. When they have just finished they are horrible things to touch, dry with scales all lifted up.

Apart from in a decent river bream don't tend to do much when you hook them but they can bend the rod if it's light enough (Drennan 13ft Waggler that must be at least 3 decades old and 3.2lb bs line) and when a shoal gets their heads down you can bag a few, nice and simple, corn/dendros on a B560 #12 over Black Bream/Caster Meal with a topping up of pellets and corn now and then.

Could you think of a nicer spot right now?

Wish this weather would sort itself out. Doing my nut in, it really is. And I still haven't tried for those pit chub yet.
