We have pretty big bass,some bream, catfish and supposedly 18 lb carp. We have pulled a few small bass and bream out. Mr. GG2 said he watched a guy take a nice bass out the other morning.

Is bream Dixie-speak for what we up North call blue-gill-sunnies?

I think the British also have bream in their streams and that's how the term came to Dixie.
