Not rich man thinks as follows,
Good sized barramundis are very sensitive to heat and cold, especially very cold and ascending water temperature. Once the body temperature went down, the metabolism also went down, and then good sized barramundis didn't feel hungry so much temporary.
This situation happened in May.
On the other hand, good sized barramundis go to the deeper water when they feel the ascending water temperature.
They wouldn't bite lures at the sudden water-temperature change.
The stable water temperature is ideal for our fishing. Even under the condition of a very cold water, they start biting lures once the water temperature became stable again.
September was the quietest time for catching good sized barramundi on our ahallows.
I couldn't catch many Barramundis in September every year.
March was told as Run-off in the wet land, but much quieter than April on the shore.
May wasn't very bad, but quieter than June, July.
However, once the water temperature became stable, good sized barramundi became very active.
Under the condition of the cold water, good sized barramundi changed into silver-white body. This silver-white body itself suited the cold water. Of course, the differences depend on the individual barramundi.
New moon tonight.
It's very dark night.
The tide was good.
The sea surface was slightly wavy which means very good.
I went fishing to an urban sand beach just after the highest tide.
I didn't expect a good sized barramundi.
I want a flathead for my dinner.
As you know, flathead loves pink in colour.
I used a DUEL HARDCORE MINNOW 70F.
I was surprised that a small barramundi would take a pink coloured lure in the super shallow water on the sandy beach.

After all, a flathead would take a pink coloured lure.
