I Would Of Thought It Was Caught In Fresh Water Its Tail Would Be Yellow Not Black Like That One If From Salt They Change To Black In In Fresh Water , Not Saying It's Not Possible As They Get The Odd One At Noosa River But You Have More Of A Fresh Water Back There
Shane
the locals are having a field day on this,,,
with response to shane's reply above the barra that was caught in m/dore a few months back was verified,,, and had much the same colorings,,
i will admit,,, i thought it was hearsay and a bit of too many ales,,,, but now seeing the pic,,,,,,,,mmmmmmmmmm
a bit like the stalked eyed swimmer i caught a trip or so back,,,, been here fo over 15 yrs,,, never seen/heard/or caught one before,,,, so why not a barra
can it get any better??????????????,,,,,,,,,,,,,,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgG_TxEPaQE
Wonder if it has any thing to do with Global whatever???
A black tail is no really reliable indication of saltwater barra i've caught plenty at bathurst/melville island's with black tail's and there's not freshwater for mile's in any direction i've even caught them with half yellow half black tail's.Dan.....
whats the world coming to.
next those sighting of that croc in the passage will be confirmed.
Either way it interests me of the thought of catching a barra in my back yard.

sorry to say neil but the ""croc"" was confirmed,,,, but it went away really quite likeOriginally Posted by HONKY DORY
thats if we're talking about the one that haunted the bottom end of the passage about 6 yrs ago,,,,
without naming names,,, a resident of sandstone point was the culprit,,,, him and his ""radio controlled submarine "" had the place in a mild panic for awhile,,,, bit like the beach in jaws 1,,,,,

can it get any better??????????????,,,,,,,,,,,,,,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgG_TxEPaQE
Wouldn't bet on it being fake but it's been played with in some way. Look at the bottom half of the left hand edge. Looks like an other layer overlapping to me.

Nice fish there it is very possible it is a real catch they have caught a few at the pin over the years, and i have caught salties with brown tails.
I have a very good mate i've been fishing with since 1980 who lived at Toorbul.
He fished that passage almost to death over the 8 yrs he lived there but only took enough for a feed each time he went. Anyway there was a pond at the prawn farm that backs onto Bullock creek that was trialling barras and some got woshed into the creek in a downpour. My mate caught a very healthy specimen in Bullock creek about a yr later in his cast net whilst chasing prawns. I have seen the pics of his barra and she has shown me where it was caught at etc.
There would most likely be quite a few of them in the passage still and that sized barra would be about right.
I am surprised to see a black tail on a saltie tho.

If this is due to global warming does this mean we will soon be catching barra in the bay? Apparently we will not need bait or sp"s just a good size landing net.
Global warming ???????????
Good pick up Kev. may be onto something there.
Cheers Chris
Democracy: Simply a system that allows the 51% to steal from the other 49%.
The waters are warming, and the fish population will move down with it. The great barra reef will soon, with- in a hundred years, be right on your door step.
The coral and its life will enrich our fishing world, so I think this is a good sign, depending on how you look at it.
