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.
