Bloody hell Poppa, you are half the bloke you were in February. But the fish is still better looking!

Hey Popps, have you ever seen Mal Florence's videos from the 70's? of fishing up around Princess Charlotte Bay and the outer Ribbon reefs? One of the top spots on my Bucket List;

There are quite a few caught ever year....probably many more hooked. You don't get that big by being stupid. Gun fisho's were getting a lot of dam barra after the floods (ex awoonga).... but when they are true salt barra they are in so much better condition, than the dam cousins, due to the conditions they constantly battle ie fighting current and outwitting predators (sharks, crocs etc).
I fished the Daly river in NT in the run off many moons ago... Seriously, it was as close to shooting big barra in a barrel as you can get. Run off fishing is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sometimes when I think of you I touch myself..........
*All ive been catching lately! The big one's fight pretty good - they actually get airborn quite a bit where i get em...and one of my dogs goes crazy for em!

We are getting barra up to about 120cm in the dams up here. Around 80cm for salties.
Caught a 7' 7" Spanish Mackerel off the western edge of Forbes Island in 1976. It actually stopped the boat when it hit and almost pulled me over the transom. Ended up drowning it after managing to attach the cord line to a cleat. I caught another just under 6 ft in 3 ft of water on the edge of a reef off Possession Island in the same year. I have a photo of that somewhere, see if I can locate it.
Consciousness and awareness - awareness is being aware of what is happening and being aware of what is happening within ourselves while we are conscious. Where did I leave my glasses?
Ive caught sailfish and marlin but yet to catch a friggin barra!
I caught crabs when I lived in Darwin

Looks like a bit of hard work for the back muscles.
And here I was happy with my 32cm bream and 2 blue swimmers on Saturday!!
Cheers BITS, he made that estimate today. He towed it around for ages before release to make sure it had some kick and a great chance of recovery. Fight was around 20 mins, think he said it took 50m first run. He was fishing 10kg braid i think, around the rocks. Will slap up a picture of the lure later or tommorrow.
