These summer visitors arrive
in numbers.
Those finding these shoals are rewarded
handsomely! |

During the summer, Brittany receives many
visiting species. Among these are the tasty and beautiful red sea bream (Dorade
rose in French). More time than not, these fish are located
by anglers targeting pollack and other fish hanging around the marks.
Red sea bream haunt the same rocks and can be caught by switching to
natural baits. Razor clams and cockles are really good
baits which can be rigged on a double hook-link paternoster rig for
simplicity. Don't be surprised if you also catch pollack and other
species too.

of delicious
red sea bream
Hooks should be forged from strong material
as these fish, like the wrasse, sport a very good set of dentures.
Many red sea bream are caught on the bottom when drifting over your
mark, but a number of good fish within a shoal will hover a few
metres above. Use your depth sounder to locate these 'hovering' fish.
Sam and friends have caught huge pouting (by pouting standards)
during these bream fishing sessions. Also, be ready to catch more
than your fair share of those juicy-lipped clowns, the cuckoo wrasse
(see pic below). Good fishing!
Red sea bream, a wonderful species for
the table!
