We had a group of regular Japanese clients fish for just a couple of days - due to available flights from Japan, so much fishing was crammed into the two days and the guys weren't disappointed. Big barra and manta rays were the order so day 1 saw us up the river with some great top water barramundi action and about 40 barras caught between the two boats and that's just on surface lures!

The biggest went 93cm and made a great sound as it inhaled the lure. Day 2 was a little shorter as the guys had a plane to catch, but the mantas played the game and several bites form cobia and queenies and small trevally kept us busy. Along the beach a few big queenies kept everyone on their toes and goldies and blue salmon made up the numbers.
