Went for the weekend to fish the estuaries around Crab Claw Is. outside of Darwin.
Had bad luck with the weather as the wet season is late and after setting out on Sat. it started to pour. Fished non stop for 2 days trying every spot conceivable but the fresh was just too abundant to do any good . All the little creeks were flooding with water. All the other guys fishing the area had the same report.
Got some good fingermark or "golden snapper " as they are called there in the deeper water in the bay but nothing huge. Plenty of sharks and small jewies. A beautiful spot with so many areas to fish it is mind boggling. Will surely be back another day. My son Chad had an absolute ball casting lures around and actually caught a small cod in the estuary (the first fish caught on the trip ). One of the few we picked up in the creeks.
hey well done brad my tour mob told me today the rain is putting a bit of a dampener on
the barra fishing up at south alligator as well so we might get out for a bit of reef fishing as well looking at the weather forecast im in for the same as you rain rain and more rain but what the hell. hey brad the set of that boat looks familar to me is it about 7 mt 100 hp yammie dry storage under fron seat and ice under second seat looks like the harbour tour boat i went on last time i was there tour tub it was called then but i think they have changed the name now

shane
Yep same boat alright. How did you go on the harbour fishing? We're back now and had a fantastic trip. Actually had 1 strike from a barra and another sniffed my lure right at the boats edge under my feet.
