Unbelievable BARRAMUNDI Fishing Townsville | Catch and Cook

In a full-on session I catch plenty of good size fish including Barramundi and Giant Trevally. I castnet for prawns / shrimp then find a likely fishing spot. I finish the day with cooking a small giant trevally and enjoying a fish wrap.
I absolutely loved making this video and am thankful I can share it with you.

Holy Barramundi! You just caught a lifetimes worth of Barra at on spot. Amazing, and no crazy screaming and carry on. Just 1 man, 1 rod, 1 cast net and a really good knowledge of your environment.👏

[@returnoutdoors2210]

Thanks for the compliment! I have spent a lot of years gaining knowledge of this environment. I am fortunate to fish in a such a healthy ecosystem!

I love the live baiting, dont see that in alot of videos, usually lures, i need to get out to townsville for a sticky beak, its only 120kms haha

[@returnoutdoors2210]

I agree, definitely more of trend towards lure fishing than live baiting. Hopefully you find time to come for a fish in this area soon. Cheers, Brad!👍

Cooking on the beach in croc country. Man that's scary..

[@returnoutdoors2210]

It is not any different to having a picnic on any beach or Island in Northern Australia. It is croc country and the risk always exist regardless of the activity we engage in.
I really appreciate your comment and being mindful this is croc country. Take care!👍

Great vid thanks for that!
How to setup the line like he does? I only know the basic: sinker, swivel, leader and hook

[@returnoutdoors2210]

The basic rig you use is very effective for catching a variety of species! Thanks for your comment!👍

[@inlikeflynn673]

I would pay for thatt😂

[@zac1837]

Is that place close to Townsville I love it thereive court mangrove Jack out the front of that place

[@returnoutdoors2210]

It is just to the south of Townsville. Great to hear you caught mangrove jack. Enjoy your fishing. Thanks for watching!👍

[@ryanphilip8350]

Hey mate.
Great video. What river system was this in?

[@returnoutdoors2210]

I appreciate your positive feedback and glad you enjoyed the video. I was fishing the Haughton River system. Have you fished this area yourself?

[@ryanphilip8350]

@@returnoutdoors2210 haven’t checked out the Haughton yet. Next on my list.

[@returnoutdoors2210]

Good luck. There are plenty of great fishing options.

[@davidraguse2106]

What size kale hook you using?
Number 2 ball sinker ?

[@returnoutdoors2210]

I vary the size of hook and sinker depending how big the bait is and how much tide is flowing. Usually a 4/0 to 6/0 hook and a number 4 or 5 ball sinker gets the job done! Thanks for your question!👍

[@patrickcabrido1337]

hey mate what brand of cast net you using?? and what size??

[@returnoutdoors2210]

It is a custom made drawstring net and I don’t think they are available anymore. If I could get hold of them I would buy another for sure. It is a 9ft drop. Thanks for your question!👍

[@WhiteBoyJaxson]

What braid?

[@returnoutdoors2210]

When I live bait around snags I usually fish 10 to 15kg braid. I don’t have any particular brand I prefer. Thanks for your question.!👍

[@WhiteBoyJaxson]

Braid

[@returnoutdoors2210]

Thanks for your question! I use 10 to 15 kg braid when live baiting for barra.

[@user-tg1or6sr3k]

why are you throwing away fish which appear to be the legal size?

[@returnoutdoors2210]

I was satisfied with the amount of fish I had caught. There are also bag limits on the number of Barramundi it is legal to keep. Thanks for your question. Cheers!
