2026 Samurai East Gippsland Bream Classic
Mallacoota Inlet
Fat Jesus Come Home With A Bang!
Mallacoota produced some amazing numbers of bream hitting the scales, however as we have seen in the last few years those big blue nose beasts have gone missing. For Team Fat Jesus Mario and Mikey Vukic they found some key fish on Day 2 to give the best bag of the weekend and rocketed them to take out the win and the Doug Phayer Memorial Trophy with 10/10 bream for 9.815kg
In 2nd Place was Team Master Baiters Mitch Nichols and Ben Thelan who weighed in 10/10 bream for 9.735kg and in 3rd Place was Team Nomad/BKK Peter Bakaj Snr and Peter Bakaj Jnr who weighed in 10/10 for 8.960kg
The Sunline Best Bag went to Team Fat Jesus Mario and Mikey Vukic who weighed a cracking Mallacoota bag of 5/5 bream for 5.225kg
The Zipbaits Monster Mover Prize went to Team Cranken Jacob Dobbs and Tristan Lock who weighed in a day 2 bag of 5/5 bream for 4.905kg moving them a massive 39 places up the leader board to finish in 15th place.
The Ecogear Big Bream also went to Team Cranken Jacob Dobbs and Tristan Lock who weighed in a cracking black bream weighing 1.205kg
The Shimano Junior Angler Prize went to Team Warrnambool District and Maintenance Group Dusty Treloar who finished in 7th place.
