Runoff   (March - May)

The runoff season can be intense! We often carry 200 bag's of soft plastic lures to handle the work load!
The fishing is HOT - on several occasions exceeding a hundred Barra a day!

Main Activities – Casting lures and flys at flooded creeks and snags.

Species – Barramundi, Mackerel, Queenfish, GT's, Threadfin & Blue Salmon, Cobia, Tuna,Trevally, Golden Snapper and Black Jewfish.

Large bait balls form off the coast from mid May and hold for a number weeks, attracting queenfish & mackerel.
Some of the fish caught in this season, must be on steroids, for example the 18 kg Queenfish caught on fly in May.
That's a lot of queenie and a lot of sweat.

Main Activities – Trolling lures, casting to rocks & snags. Blue water jigging. Fly fishing 

Species – Barramundi – some good eating “Saltys” in this lot 
Threadfin Salmon, GTs, Queenfish – expect some XOS fish, Trevally, Spanish Mackerel – same as for Queenfish and expect some genuine “line burners.”

This is the best period for sight casting/poloroiding the flats for “Barra” & Threadfin.
This can be both a thrilling and testing time. Accurate casting with lure or fly is essential, as an angler may have up to 50 shots in a day.
How many you capture is all up to you and your skills! ( and of course, expert tuition from your guide)

A note on this style of fishing, we can't over emphasize how important it is to have the best quality sunglasses money can buy as the glare off the water is extreme.

Main Activities – Trolling lures, casting to rocks & snags. Blue water jigging. Fly fishing.

Species – Barramundi, Threadfin Salmon, GTs, Queenfish, Trevally, Spanish Mackerel, Tuna and Fingermark Bream.
