The differences between high and low tides as follows,
4.55m
5.12m
5.20m
Ideally, I can catch more barramundi in the difference of 2.5m - 4m between high and low tides on lures by land based in my fishing locations.
Seeing that we haven't had any chances to fish on shore until just few days ago because of too much freshwater and very wavy sea condition, today's conditions were not so bad for me.
The sea surface was nicely slightly wavy.
I went to the Myilly Point rocks this morning.
The sea water was very clear.
Barramundi preferably would chase live baits under the condition like this.
Even if they chase a lure, they wouldn't suck it rapidly.
I didn't catch any fish there after all.
I went to the old-man's rocks when the tide just started coming to the shallow.
The sea surface was nicely slightly wavy.
The sea water was murky.
I caught a queenfish on Squidgy Pro Mongrel.
Mr. Raymond J. Kasjan (NSW) hooked and lost his first barramundi on a soft plastic shad with 5grm/#1/0 jighead.
Having a strong pulling of the fish at the beginning, I mistook it to be a big barramundi in the movie.
