The sea surface was flat again tonight!
In addition, the water was very clear.
There were too many days of the flat sea surface in this winter.
A slightly wavy sea is the best condition for catching sea barramundi on our shallows.
But there was no moonlight.
It's was a very good counter measure against the flat sea surface.
I needed a very good lure for this situation.
HRT LURES Mad minnow was!
(I'm importing some HRT LURES Mad minnows 70mm young mullet's colour from USA and some salt water double hooks from Japan.)
It becomes very important factor to choose the wright bait pattern when we fish in the very clear water.
It should be small mullets there tonight.
I was lucky!
I caught a winter sea barramundi.
A winter sea barramundi is very beautiful.
