hi all
myself and 3 mates had our first crack at impoundment barra this weekend.
after a quick stop into foxies for some info,lures and a map we arrived at the dam just before lunch on friday.
fished from 2pm till dark for 0 result,unfased tho as it was more of a feeling out process than anything

next morning we when straight up to the southern arm of B. left in u herry and left my Dig cam,Hat and sunscreen:-[ . all that was forgotten however at 7:45am when i hooked up perfectly in the jaw to my first (and only for the trip) barra;D
after without a doubt the most knee weakening fight ive ever experienced the girl slipped into the net. 1 HAPPY CAMPER;D

no more touches after that and back at camp at midday for lunch
spent the arvy in the north arm of B for 1 small bump but that was it.

Barra went 97.5cm and was cought in a small bay with some light wind blowing into it on my 6' 8" barra raider 6-10kg,Daiwa saltist HRF ,30lb fins,80lb black majic supple trace and a 5" hollow belly rigged weedless
would like to thank all the IBD sufferers on here for the info i was given leading up to the trip. ill be back without a doubt.....
cheers JAYVEE

Well done Jayvee, thats good stuff, thanks for the report mate.

You should know by now that you are hooked and will soon start to get the shakes.

The only cure is to get back up there and into them again.

Need the pill about once a month mate. LOL.

cHEERS,
