Went today with some friends from work. first few hours were good then the wind picked up and it went to sh!t. Score was one all, mat steve and i all scored a barra. Steve would have got 3 if he had leader on. Blood knots on braid straight onto the hook doesn't hold real well. When i figured out what was happening i tied him a trace on. I caught some livies the day before but i couldn't find the air pump hose so they soon became deadies which the barra weren't interested in. Took one of the boats for a spin in the mixed species pond and saw a couple of milkfish that would have been 3 feet long each but they crapped their pants when i chucked my lure past them. No wonder they're ment to be suck good fighters, i've never seen a fish move so quickly. The guys were happy to get a barra but disappointed with the final tally.
Heres a photo of a 70+cm barra about to tail walk, if you look closly you can see the line fluttering like a ribbon, no wonder they spit so many hooks.
