I have a mutual fishing teacher with Alex – George Voukolos.

George has caught 21 metery barramundi from a land base so far this year.

They both just like the land-based challenge of metery barramundi fishing.

Anyway, they are the top grade super fishos.

I asked Alex to give me some information, and then I received a message from him as follows:

“Caught at Daly River on black & gold DOA Baitbuster, Shimano Core 100 reel, Venom 4kg baitcaster rod, retrieve was winding in slow and jigging.

“She put up a good fight, released her after 20 minutes of swimming.”

HOW HE DID IT

Lure: DOA Bait Buster

Black & Gold

Reel: Shimano Core 100

Braid: Sufix 832 30lb

Leader: Schneider 45lb

Knot: The Slim Beauty Knot

Rod: Venom Wilson Fishing
