Bass & Bream vs BARRA!


I had a couple of young bass and bream tournament winners fish with me last week. While they are just crazy about bass and bream, I just couldn't help notice how they rated barra and the bycatch associated with barra fishing. Also keen to fly fish a little, the guys racked up a few
nice fish in 4 days.....



Barra fishing with top water lures and fly poppers is very visual and rewarding.

Cobia on fly off manta rays was one of the highlights.

Giant Herring were a welcome catch on fly, pull most bass backwards and jump like crazy!!


A cobia double header. Mick lost one while Joel was hooked up, got re rigged and caught another!
Joel was amazed by the northern bream - spots all over them, big teeth and pull any oyster rack model backward!
