With the big rains in March we were all looking forward to a mind blowing Run Off. Well the weather gods threw another curly one at us with the rain in March followed up by next to nothing. Whilst this didn’t spell total gloom for the run Off I am sure that if we had had more follow up it would have been a bumper season.
Whilst in general fish numbers were down and guides had to work hard to put clients onto fish there was still some quality Barramundi fishing coming from the usual places like the Sth Aligator, Shady/Camp and the Daly.
On the neap tides the Black Jew fish were also on the chew on the reefs at both Shady and the South. Numbers up around 20 a day were not an uncommon occurence.
Well a photo tells a thousand words so here are just a few from the 2007 Run Off.
