Daly river Obese barra
Landed this 108cm obese barra on April fools day not far from home, one of the heaviest barra I've seen, I was fishing solo so this is the only pic I took.

Ripper fish, fat as, could last till next wet without a feed!!
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!
Especially when you can see them!

Wow!
When i was in Karumba last year I visited the Barramundi Discovery Centre. Interestingly, I learnt that there are circa 16 genetic variations in Barramundi populations in Australia. I used to think that Daly River barra were just very well fed (which they probably are) but genetically they are a heavier set fish compared to most other populations according to the science.
Again, wow.

Re: Daly river Obese barra
Thanks NBN for the interesting info regarding the genetic variations and the Daly fish being heavy weights.
Mickkk she hit like a right hook from Tyson and I had to chase her for a couple of hundred meters in the current, she jumped once and fought deep the rest of the time.
Jeffish I'm getting older so everything feels heavier but I reckon near 18kg.
