I've been documenting the number of barramundi I've caught myself since March 2010 on my blog, along with photos. All those barramundi were caught from land using lures.
2010: 78 barramundi
2011: 272 barramundi
2012: 374 barramundi
2013: 113 barramundi
2014: 83 barramundi
2015: 73 barramundi
2016: 52 barramundi
2017: 61 barramundi
2018: 75 barramundi
2019: 32 barramundi
2020: 21 barramundi
I have caught 1241 barramundi so far.
In 2010, I didn't know much about how to fish for barramundi yet.
In 2011, I started using a soft plastic bait called ‘Squidgie Fish’
and my fishing results improved dramatically.
Since 2012, I've been finding out which tide timings work best for
the land based barramundi fishing.
The Larrakeyah outfall (poo shooter), which pumps macerated sewage
into Darwin Harbour, closed at the end of May in 2012.
In
2019 and 2020, there was less rainfall than usual during the wet season.
