I couldn't expect to catch a barramundi on these shallow waters.
Mr. Jack Wong told me where I should go fishing in this season.
Of course, it's the land based fishing.
It's a deep water point to me.
Normally, my fishing locations are 30cm - 150cm in depth.
Jack's secret point was around 6m - 7m in depth at that time.
I often use a white lure for this season's milky water in colour.
When I was hopping up and down the lure along the bottom I had a small fish bite near the structure of rocks.
I thought for sure that it would be a small rockcod or Moses perch and there was a small fish near my feet.
I dropped my lure near my feet on a trial basis.
I was unprepared for a strong pull.
As a result, I caught a 65cm saltwater barramundi with a very rare gold body in colour.
