Hi there,

I had forgotten to take a newspaper on my first trip of the long weekend...
But I did think about it on the second one!

So on the first of August, I got a 71cm Barramundi on a Zman soft plastic in Middle Arm.
I will soon do a post about it, but until then, here is the photos of my 71cm Barra!

Have a good day,
Pecheur

Glad you asked the question Jeffish cause I wasn't sure myself if estuary Barra still counted or this month is limited to billabong and dam Barra only. Sounds like it's the latter?

We have had estuary barra in this round in the past, main thing is that those big dam barra are allowed in this round.

Given it has been a very average rain year, we'll have salt, billabong and dam barra once again. Probably some folk not keen to fish billabongs this year.

Ah, I thought it was freshwater only. I had written off this round. Don't get into the bongs much these days! :smoking:

Hi there,

Sorry I posted the pics late at night, and maybe I shouldn't have.
It was not my intention to create any discord.
If you want to take my fish out that's ok, no drama, I will try to be more focused next time.
:D

Have a good day,
Pecheur

No discord, and jeffish was right to query too.

Salty fish allowed in this round. Gives people more options :mrgreen:

Why change it part way through the comp? The challenge of this comp is fishing different areas and time of the year.


Plenty of other rounds for salt Barra
I would say leave it too

Normally I would, but the bongs being pretty poor, and with 4-Mile covered in salvinia, it is better to open up the options.

Freshwater Fly comp results saw very few barra at Corroboree.

While it could be argued this offers a challenge, if we are to keep our prize sponsors we need a good number of fish entered in each round.

Goldfish only allowed in this one round or the Queenslanders would win everything :D
