Saturday afternoon Queenfish #20-21 Trevally #41 REBEL MINNOW 115 mm BOMBER LONG A 14A

I was about to go out for fishing this morning.

Oh no!
I put many lures in a big bowl temporarily recently because I have been very busy at work.

Finally, I chose to take it easy at home again.
I gave up going out for fishing this morning after all.

By the way, I thought that the above custom has taken on the Australian life-style.
According to Andrew, it's a "Northern Territory lure rack".

I scheduled, "I will not," but afterword I changed my mind and went out for fishing.

An original REBEL MINNOW 115 mm was much better than their current model. 
I thought that an original one had been a "remarkable improvement" on the current model.

The water was very, very clear.
I caught a small queenfish #20 on REBEL MINNOW 115 mm in a very strong water current.
I has just started using Sufix 832 30LB for my Shimano Scorpion 1500XT.
The flight distance of a lure was improved very much to compare with FINS 30LB.
However, I prefer FINS 30LB to Sufix 30LB for my bait-cast reel.

Friday morning Trevally #36-40 DAIWA Dr. MINNOW F

I got paid holidays pay because I worked on my days off and a lot of overtime.
So I had compensatory days off on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Unfortunately, I had a very serious ingrown nail and couldn't walk properly on Wednesday.
It was very difficult to cut a very bad ingrown nail by my self.
To solve the problem, I went to see a doctor and was recommended to go to see the specialist by the doctor yesterday.
Thanks to the very nice treatment by the specialist, the pain was disappeared.
However, I shouldn't wade through the shallow water today.

I went fishing to an urban channel this morning.
I didn't need to wade through the shallows there.
I knew that I couldn't expect to catch barramundi at that tide timing.

So I tried to use a very nicely small lure.

I made constant twitching actions on my small lure.
It looked like a small garfish or longtom.

I probably caught around 20 trevally there.
It was a very easy fishing with a small lure.
If you have not experienced to catch any fish with lures until now, you should try this following lure fishing.
You will be crazy about lure fishing.

He has caught 14 metery barramundi so far this year. Mr. George Voukolos Jr DOA

Mr. George Voukolos Jr is a barramundi fishing legend among barramundi fishing legends.

I was taught how to fish in Darwin city by Mr. George Voukolos Jr in 1989.
He chose fishing rod, reel, line, sinker, hook and so on for me.
He taught me how to make fishing-knots.
The next day, I caught my first 74cm queenfish from the wharf.
I had George teach me how to catch a long tail tuna.
The next day, I caught my first 4.5kg longtailtuna with a vibration lure from the wharf.
George suggested me to use a REBEL minnow for catching sea barramundi on shore.
Using REBEL minnow, I understood how to master characteristic of sea barramundi trait correctly.
I was very lucky because I met the best teacher for fishing in Darwin first.
As a result, I have been crazy about fishing since then.

I caught a metery barramundi only once.
I think that George catches around 30 metery barramundi every year.
He has already caught 14 metery barramundi so far this year.

Of course, he can catch a metery barramundi in the cold-dry season.
He caught a very solid 104cm winter barramundi in June too.

Where: Daly river by land based

Lure: D.O.A.

Line: Sufix 824 30LB

Leader: SCHNEIDER 45LB

Knot: The Albright Knot

Reel: QUANTUM EXO PT

Rod: GLoomis GL2

I didn't know how to use this above lure properly.
George's lure-action: Pump, pump and stop

Fortunately, I had an opportunity to listen to George about his fishing tactics.
The following memo shows the best timing for catching a metery barramundi.

Monday night Winter Barramundi #892 SQUIDGY FISH

The water was very cold and very clear.
The sea surface was slightly wavy which means very good for catching sea barramundi.
In addition, the moon phase was as follows,

The moon was growing.
There should be more slightly wavy sea surfaces in this period.

The right bait pattern should be a very young mullet.
I chose a Squidgy Fish 70mm Black-Gold as a bait.
Jig-head was very light.

Many Pikey Breams in Darwin in July

I had been too busy to spare time for catching barramundi since July 23.
1:30pm I went fishing to the urban rocks in accordance with outgoing-tide timing for catching barramundi.
I couldn't see the right bait pattern.
Probably I should have used a Squidgy fish 70mm Mint Jelly at that time.
I couldn't catch any barramundis there after all.

Normally I don't use frozen-prawn bait for my fishing.
I prefer lure fishing to bait fishing.
But I bought a pack of frozen-prawn bait at the petrol station this afternoon.

3:00pm I went fishing to the urban channel in accordance with outgoing-tide for catching pikey bream.
"Pikey bream fishing in Darwin" is held mostly in dry season when the climate and temperature is mild, the weather is good and the sun is not too strong.

Very easy fishing.

Small!

I caught more than 10 pikey breams there.
These breams were smaller than in the average year.
I almost lost interest in catching those pikey breams because of having caught them too often.

I wanted to try to use a new lure.

Very small lure but heavy!

Trevally took it soon.

3 more trevally by this lure.

3 rockcod also.

But I couldn't catch any pikey bream with this lure after all.
