Headed to Lee Point to chase a few Tuna today.
There were plenty of schools of both Mack Tuna and Longtails giving big schools of bait a hard time on the inshore reef at Lee Point. We managed a couple of Long Tails and a couple Mack Tunas for the morning. On the way back into the Harbour itself there were also pleanty schools working off of of Larakeyah but they proved difficult to get on top of with only the one short hook up we headed for home.


Gave the Shimano 2500 CI4 another workout on this tuna.
This little reel has a great drag and performs great for it size,
it’s quickly becoming my favourite bit of kit.

Adelaide River on Thursday 11th March. 93cm – 29+lbs, give me 30lbs. We caught 14 barra on hard body lures ranging from 56cm averaging 65cm. It was a great day thanks to River and Reef (Simon).
He had four Queenslanders to deal with, and all of us caught and released our fare share. You Territortians are on notice that us
Queenslanders are staying around long enough to catch that meter plus.
Watch this space we’re heading to Shady Camp.

With February on track as being the driest on record and totally ruining the great start to the wet season we had the collective prayers of NT Fishing Guides and Barra Fisho’s have been answered.
The last few days have seen around 250mm dumped at Darwin Airport and more to come. The even better news is this rain is wide spread giving the flood plains from the Daly to Kakadu a much needed top up.
Looks like we will now at least reach average rainfall for the wet season.
Bring on the Run Off

The Fish the Top End logo is now a registered Trade Mark in the Australian Register of Trade Marks.
What does this all mean? Well not much really the logo gets a little R on it and it gives the logo some legal protection. With some previous issues in relation to this that should solve that problem.
