A Solid Threadfin Salmon caught on a Prawn. These fish have long whiskers and have adapted to hunt in discolored water. We were hoping to do battle with one of these speedsters but we got a huge surprise when Mr Barramundi turned up. We spot locked the 7000 Yellowfin plate boat with the 112 pound Minn Kota to allow us to cast around some old pylons from a wharf demolished in a past flood. There was plenty of bait action all around as the tide poured in. Small fish were eating our prawn baits, then all of a sudden Kai’s rod buckled over and out of the water came a big Barra. It jumped several times as Kai was struggling to get the powerful fish away from the snags. Kai was doing a great job of keeping the fish away from the nasty structure along the bank when all of a sudden a Bull Shark appeared from nowhere and was slashing at the fish. We were screaming wind, wind, wind as Kai needed to get the big fish away from the shark and into the net. Kai did a great job and pulled the Barra from the Bull Sharks jaws and kept it swimming all the way into the waiting net. We couldn’t believe what happened and Kai couldn’t believe his luck. His biggest Barra to date close to the magic meter mark.
