Inshore species Bonanza- again!!

 

Fishing with our long time clients from Singapore leady by Nick and Ian, the weather gods did not smile upon us through the month of October with strong winds and cyclonic depressions playing havoc with the sea conditions. Again we had to change the rules and go inshore, however the guys had been briefed beforehand so they were well stocked with the lighter tackle and has a full range of lures to try out.

 

We started off with the usual suspects like the Mangrove Jack above and the Barrmundi below, looking at the picture above you would almost think you were in far northern latitudes, at least inshore we did not have to worry about taking a pounding from the waves and wind….

Then in-between the action we start to get a few others, take a look at the giant Gourami below and they would probably take a fly too…

Some more nice Barramundi here is a beautifully coloured gold one below for Ian who believes he is an expert here… respect!!

Then look what we land its another new species on lure, a feather-back, now its getting even more interesting, and Ian cant stop smiling….

More mangrove jack action, this time a multiple hook up below

Now a nice Barramundi for Nick as well

Ian was out to get all the species that were around and found a herring as well

 

Now Gerard gets his golden Barramundi as well, happy smiles all round.

and a super Mangrove Jack as well this time just near the river mouth casting.

Now we have another species a small oxeye Tarpon for Ian, is he having some fun or what.

Another Glimpse of the great inshore fishery that looks like its developing as well, we species and a few decent sized fish, with the big bad reef brawlers offshore and the barramundi inshore we really cant ask for much more action at the moment.

Tight lines.
