silver things!!!

[ronnien]

mozza rang me last night while it was flogging down rain.. you keen for a fish tomorrow... yeah!
we shot across the bay about 8.00am in milkpond conditions, we went up alligator creek to where the weir is. done a bit of trolling for only 2 strikes, than we anchored up where there was fresh coming from a flood plain which was spilling into the creek. mozza was first to get a hookup on a surface lure but the little barra dropped it, i was next with a solid hookup & boated a 59cm barra on a 5 inch bat wing frog, the barra smashed it on the surface! than mozza had another solid hookup on a black & gold squidgie this 1 came in at 64cm! things were looking good, a few more hookup's but we dropped them than mozza is on again this time it is a jack around 40cm. everything is starting to get hot & mozza pours a bucket of fresh water over himself to cool down, things shut down so a move was called & we were out the front of cocco creek... we started trolling along the edge where it dropped into the channel, maybe 15-20mins later we see some clear water in front of us & as i was going to light a smoke... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. i am on this 1 is alot bigger & after a soild fight mozza nets my biggest saltwater barra to date, coming in at 82cm & about 7-8kg! this 1 took a classic f18. it was a great day's fishing. (but f#@$ing hot).

Well done Ron and Mozza. That barra should cook up ok, looks like its been in some salt somewhere (maybe its been out to the reef and back??haha), or maybe it was a salty and is changing colour adjusting to all the fresh.

I was just sitting at work today pissed off at the weather, pissed off that I didn't win the oz lotto on Tuesday night, then I wouldn't need a job and I would've been out there with you trying my luck somewhere.

Hopefully I get out somewhere this weekend, wouldn't mind a barra, haven't caught a legal one in three seasons

Top work, good on ya's for making the most of the break in the weather.

I'm very jealous, you guys out getting the fish while some of us are out working...

How did they taste, were they clean or a bit muddy??

Cheers
