A superb Barra for Dan Elliott

Here's Dan's story...

Hi from Australia. Here's a fine example of an impounded freshwater Barramundi (Lates calcarifer). It was caught locally in Central Queensland, and although not a huge specimen for Barra, it's in such pristine condition that we couldn't let it pass without a photo. They can grow to 1.8 m and 60kg

It was caught using a live mullet on a 9/0 hook suspended 1 metre below a float. A 40 kilo mono trace was used. A substantial trace is required due to the razor sharp protrusions on the fishes gill covers, which are also hazards for unwary fingers.
The estimated weight was 12.5kg.
It was a very warm night, even by CQ standards, and at 1am it was still 30'C. These tend to be the best nights for Barra fishing, and mosquito bites!

Two more of similar size were caught on the same night using 15cm 'Killer' style lures with an internal rattle.

Good angling

Dan Elliott.
