Saturday evening
Barramundi #806
K-Ten Special

Normally, October should be one of the best season for the land based barramundi fishing in Darwin.
But we didn't have a good monsoon season last time and so we are still in a slightly slow season now.

It is thought that we have to choose the point where we fish from various points of views
Do you smell bad on our urban shallows?
We probably have no very good sewage treat plant and sewage disinfection system.
Originally, we had a very good monsoon rains and so we didn't need to find the truth.
We could do quite well without it.

I saw many oysters covered with some green plants.
I saw green mud in intertidal zone.
It smelled strange chlorine.
Especially East Point.

The absolute number of our urban barramundis is much smaller than 2011.
Therefore, we need a something special to catch a barramundi on our urban shallows.

I have just started using my treasured lure.
It's a K-Ten lure.
I found it at the special second hand shop in Tokyo.

As a result, I caught a 56cm barramundi at noon today and a following barramundi this evening.
