Another barra report
Submitted by jay_burgess on Sun, 2007-09-02 19:46
After yesterday's success I couldn't resist going down for another crack at some early season barra this afternoon. Had a red hot little session nailing three to 75cm all on lures. Gave poppers a shot in the hope I could get my first barra on popper. Had a couple of strikes but they didn't hit them as hard as the minnows and it didn't hook up. All fish were released.

Next weekend neaps don't look too flash for fishing this spot but the following weekend Saturday 15th with the high at 12:40pm (basically same tides as this wk end) would allow us to fish the run out during the afternoon. Keen?

No dramas, will email you closer to the date to make sure you're still OK to go.
In the meantime, grab yourself one or two of the lures in the pic. Classic Barra 120 shallow in purple/yellow colours.
