    Black Bream are always thought of as a boat caught fish. But you don't always need a boat to catch yourself a bream. There are locations around the UK where bream are taken by shore anglers, and they aren't small fish either.

    Bream are found in very shallow water and often much closer to shore than we realise. The more noted marks for shore bream are the beaches at Brighton, Shoreham, Littehampton, and also the Isle of Wight, which offers both beach and rock fishing for bream. The rocks and breakwaters in the Channel Isles, especially Alderney Breakwater, and Ronez and the rocky headlands between La Moye and La Corbiere, offer a shot at shore bream. In North Wales bream are taken off Pwllheli Beach and also inside the Menai Straits.
