Thought Id get the ball rolling with a 76cm Daly River barra caught at the Crossing last week and report in NT Barra section. Got it on a Squidgy Slick Rig in white. Pretty happy to finish the year strongly and especially with 2 landbased fish.
Its been fun to be in the comp even though I had some tough times fishing the dry this year. See you at the ski club drinks.

All good seano..all the spots we fished are boatable just would be a big trip..im sure the last thing the big payin customers would want is sharin the spot with a boat, spoils the isolated/remote feel of it

well folks no december barra for me. sort of... steaming out of harbour gone for 4 weeks. landed a few fish, including a 55/60cm jobbie at daly crossing the other day however didnt take a foto or even measure it, wasnt gonna carry my rat back to boat for a measure and foto in front of 15 people so i miss out. would have been a leagl fish a month for 3 years. a fitting end...
good luck to all involved, see you all at the drinks in the new year..

nailed this 60cm swampy in the Ord at the start of the month. No that big but pretty rapt to achieve my goal of a barra a month. Was hard goin at stages but was a good challenge. Thanks to everyone who was involved who made it a good fun comp and cheers to Lee for organising everything and copping the unwarranted flak! Cheers all see ya at the pss up!

Ha good fish! nice work Zulks!
cheers Youve been pushin me all year! must have come down to the wire. Wonder what the final tally was?
I found my Jan barra and dec barra the hardest to get. Dropped a good fish at Manton a few weeks ago but have been down south for the last few weeks so have had no chance of an upgade.
What day are we going to have the pss up? should we have it start of Feb when everyone is around?
