Dodgy and Brads last barra fish for the season
Dodgy and i decided to go for a blat late saturday evening for the last barra fish of the season. The water temp is still well up over 32 degrees and it looks like it is going to be like that for a while BUT, to tell you the truth i think i am over the barra for now. It has been a pretty long season and i need to find something else to do for a while to revitalise my barra fever.
Well we didnt have much luck on arrival dropping around three fish before we settled down for a nights sleep in preparation for the early mnorning tide. The wind had dropped off through the night making sleeping a tad uncomfortable, fortunately we didnt get rained on through the night and we woke to a beautiful morning. Things were pretty slow we managed a few finger mark, jacks and salmon and not much else before the tide bottomed out.
Then i managed a nice hit and stayed connected to the first bazz of the session. I landed it on a 7" Nuke chicken Gulp. Was pretty happy. Since it was th elast fish for the season i decided to keep her. She went around 77-78cm.
baz 56 for the season, and the last for this year...........
Dodgy was the next to hook up, the fish jumped a few times before she came in, again the fish was around the 77cm mark. We hooked about another three barra in the morning session however we didnt stay connected. Was surprisingly a little quiet. Came home not long after ten in the morning. Have a nice feed of jacks and barra to last a couple of weeks. I am looking forward to trying something different now, see you next summer Pilbara Bazzas!
I think it is GT time again..................

I volunteer to hang onto the rod for that one Adam.
Sure was alot of casts between fish down that way. Thanks to Brad for pushing me into sticking at the plastics through the 2 tide changes.
Looks like I owe you a jigging trip now. Pressure is on.
Does anyone know where the love of god goes, when the waves turn the minutes to hours?
