Fresh Aplin's Barra

[vinny78]

We caught these a week or two ago in Aplins. Not much of a story to accompany the pics except that we dropped three more that evening. The first of which was a good fish that spent most of the fight airborne- much like a Tarpon on steroids...alot of steroids.

Nice fish mate. Did you get them on baits or lures?

[Curmudgeon]

Well done lads! They're great fish!

I'll have to sneak out one of these nights and give the sp's a swim in the fresh...

Cheers,
Brian.

Curmudgeon, no need to wait til nightfall, just give it a go late afternoon. Try Slickrigs in 'Dropbear'- no bigger than 110mm though. Let us know how you fare.

While we're on the topic of Slickrigs, anyone come across the "new" lightweight ones- or are they just among those new Pro Range Squidgies?

Good fish guys, a mate got an 87cm from aplins recently on 2kg line, don't know how he kept it clear of the reeds!. They are both nice fish too.
