Been some great fish coming out of the estuaries, no need to travel to the rivers for this round. Good luck

FFF Seadogs - Round 8 - Salmon and Barra - Day 10

A great barra month, so I'll assume you fellas are playing cards close to the chest for a last minute flurry ...

Not me. Boats still in dry dock and it's killing me! Hoping for a big October.

I double that

57cm from SWA using classic F18, lots of smaller fish around at the moment, the big ones shouldn't be too far away!

Secret spot Trent?
Hook up in a week or so brus.

Is it just me or has the average size of the SWA fish got smaller over the last couple of years. I used to often get 80cm + fish but haven't done that well on bigger size fish there for a while.

78cm caught from an eddy in an Apsley Strait creek on one of my B52s i won from the magazine, cheers Matt!

Nice fish Jack, you are doing better than most.

Was thinking this the other day. I've noticed from pictures crossing my desk over the years that there have not been as many big fish. About 15 years ago the rocky area just downstream from the Narrows (west bank) produced some crackers, including 1.2m+ fish, also Lance Butler was catching some stonkers out there.
