Thread: My 1lb Redbreast

Those redbreast are some pretty fish. Especially those with that distinctive humps on their heads. I've caught a ton (figure of speech) of 3/4 lbers but I'm still looking for my first 1 lb. bream. Congrats on a real trophy.

I have not caught a one pounder yet, but I have caught a few that were very close. Now I have seen a couple that were no doubt a pound or better in some of the South Georgia rivers. Especially when they are on the beds. I also can't wait for spring. I'm glad we've been getting the rain though. They really need that highwater to grow and feed. River fishing around here got pretty dismal this past fall with the drought.

we catch bream here year round this cold weather is gonna stack them up behind the clarkhill dam like you wouldnt beleive.Our winter trips can yeild 130=150 bluegill,shellcrackers,redbreasts,and crappies in just 2or3 hours consistantly!

well they dont stack up like that in the Ogeechee during the winter for some reason, i wish they did.

What did you catch it on.

great lookin fish man!!!!

Slab Slayer do you ever fish the Satilla or the Canoochee for rooster reds. What do you like in the way of Beetle Spins type baits. I hear Flip R's and Spin Dandies are really good down that way. Any weight or color preference?

I really like the spin dandies. I like ther crawfish color, and the black and yellow. They will murder them in the Ogeechee. Never been to the Satilla, or Canoochee.
