I left home at 6:45am.
I went to Channel Island to fish.
It took an hour one-way.
The tide was going.
The sea was calm.
The breeze rippled the surface of the sea water.
It was much better than the deadly calm sea.
The productive fishing windows weren't very long today.
My very good fishing friend, Mr. Darren Forsythe, came at just the right moment.
This fishing location was so shallow-several tens of centimeters deep-that shallow diving minnows normally should be used.
He used a Reidy's Junior B52.
I thought that a 100mm sized Junior B52 would hit the sand bottom.
He showed me how to retrieve his Junior B52.
He didn't add any twitch-actions on the retrieval of the lure to get a very cautious barramundi to bite his lure in the calm water.
He inserted some short pauses during the steady reeling.
As a result, he caught a nice sized barramundi.

Land based in Darwin
Reidy's Junior B52 100mm H-GBR colour
By the way, I also caught a 51cm barramundi after that.
I used a Squidgies Fish 70mm Mint Jelly colour with a 1/8oz jighead.
I released this fish into the water.
Today was a good day.

Thank you very much.
