A Day of Surprises (BIG land based Barra fishing in URBAN CREEK)

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

ROLL CALL: Who would have kept it and who would have released it? I'll go first. I know I was fishing for food, but a big breeder female Barramundi like that... I just couldn't keep it. She should lay millions of eggs a year.

[@jonries8059]

Mikey Cunningham agree mate! 58-80 !! Qld need to change the law from 120cm down to 90!

[@rodashford1151]

Yeah i agree, she should be breeding, i live in cairns Qld and think that our size needs to change to 58min 80max

[@_Murky_]

Anything 90 and above let her go.

[@normc007]

Well done Mike. Of course you let her go. It wasn’t on Flanders, but you will recall that way back when I was the majority shareholder in Flanders, anything over 80CM went back. Still a good policy. And I know you would not have even considered killing her. Good on you.

[@brendanwilkie7598]

Mikey a good call overall. I would say if your cupboard was bare and food was a priority then and it was only thing available then on plate would not have been an issue. Otherwise I applaud your restraint. Cracker tussle with the big girl though......bet the heart rate was up.

[@theoffender3113]

90’s a good fish mate... but not kidding ya mate .. last 4 fish have been over a meter... biggest went 122... they call me Mr Lucky. 🍻

[@notredame089]

Nice Barra mate glad you didn’t get eaten by a mad gecko🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🇦🇺🤠🍺🤙

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

Funny you say that... the following night the news reported a croc chased a fisherman at that exact spot. Pretty crazy. Probably not the smartest thing me getting in the water like that.

[@jackbest9714]

Hey do you know how to catch mullet without a cast net

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

You can get little bait net things. I can remember my dad using one when I was a kid. They are like the size of a case of beer with small circle entry holes on each end. Just make sure to check your local rules and regulations. Cast net is the way to go if you’re allowed to throw one where you are.

[@terrencetaylor4723]

Nice size barra for that spot ay 👍. My PB is 103

[@adventurecrabnt8115]

Great Video Mate teach me your Jedi ways!!!!

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

Hahaha... it's all in the butterfly mate. Haha. So glad you were there with a brag mat!!

[@adventurecrabnt8115]

@@MikeyCunninghamFishing Your More then welcome it was a amazing fish!!!

[@adventurecrabnt8115]

Video Editing training next LOL

[@notredame089]

We’ve all done it mate the things we do to look after those awesome creatures stay safe mate head on a swivel🍺🇦🇺🤠🤙🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊

[@tobyneill21]

Barras turn into scavengers at certain tides an times of the year . Sometimes they will take a dead bait more then any live bait

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

Yea interesting. I can't remember the last Barra I caught on a piece of dead bait.

[@tobyneill21]

Well done releasing it too man. Many people wouldn’t have kept it especially at this times. But it’s still a breeder fish an wouldn’t taste to great. Well done showing her respect an putting her back!!

[@gazmo6070]

Wait...on a dead mullet?? Niiiiice one fella

[@grantbowley2160]

Didn't recognise the spot. Where was it

[@uluacom]

🔥

[@davelekenila9685]

Where is this?

[@joshuawilde-djumadi4685]

Hey Mikey do I know how big the tides were or an estimate??

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

It was on the 18th of April 2020 mate. So you can go check out exactly the tides for that day!! 👍🏼

[@noahmitchell3791]

We are getting a few boys for a flick at rapid creek this weekend to do some filming. Want to come?

[@bobbuilder8469]

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

I just got back from a big trip last week mate. New videos coming soon!!! Was pretty epic.

[@bugsybugsy6826]

[@mitchelldelay9852]

When’s the next vid coming out

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

Mate, really really soon. I just got back from a big trip and got 700GB of footage I’m currently going through.

[@gavindereus3643]

I wouldn’t keep it

[@bugsybugsy6826]

all this fishing and only a 90cm PB? BAHA

[@joseph8852]

Good Barra for rubbish creek but I sure as shit would have be eating crabs out of there Super high levels of PFAS , all the storm water run off from the uni and boat load of rubbish

[@MikeyCunninghamFishing]

I hadn't thought of any of that mate. At least it gets a good flush out every day. Particularly on the bigger tides.
