Sydney Harbour hosts Southern Bream Series

ROUND 6 of the Southern Bream Series (SBS) run by the Basin Lure and Fly Anglers Inc was held yesterday, Sunday June 28 on Sydney Harbour and proudly sponsored by Shimano.

The event saw the biggest turnout for the series with 67 boating teams and 41 kayak anglers entered.

The Harbour turned on a great day with lovely weather, but unfortunately not a lot of fish. Only 26 boating teams and 6 kayakers managed to present a full bag of fish at the weigh-in.

The final winner in the Boating section was Team 13 Fishing2, with Michael Colotouros and Paul Mazarolli taking a 5/5 bag total of 3.340kg.
