Live Bait Fishing For Barramundi In Far North Queensland

thank you for the love it means a lot, put down in the comments your thoughts,
love yas

[@SloppyDonutz]

Hey Luke! Personally, the easiest way to catch a barramundi is using a 4/0 octopus beak hook with a live herring or mullet, bigger the better - don't be too afraid to throw a 15 or 20cm mullet on your hook, only 60 or 70cm barramundi have been known to even eat 25cm mullet. Hooking your live baits through the lip and nose will help them hold better and stay alive better. Fish between the tides, preferably from low to high and cast near mangroves or structure with shade. Follow these and I'm sure you'll have your first barra in no time! Also with your drag, if your line is near structure, you're not holding your rod and your drag is undone like you showed in the video, then you are almost guaranteed to lose a legal sized barra. Put your drag around where you can pull a tiny tiny bit out using just one hand without wrapping. Cheers.

[@islandhopper7224]

I don’t use anything smaller then 6/0 for barra

[@webby3046]

Hey mate, I only just came across your videos and I love them. You actually show the reality of fishing and that's great.. I'm up in the NT and the what I've found works for me is fishing the change in tide from low to high. Also keep in mind that wherever you catch live bait barra will be because that's what they are after as well. Fishing the mouth of a creek should also provide the goods. I run a 6/0 octopus circle hook and it works well for me. Barra have a big mouth and should have no dramas at all gulping it down for you. Let me know if your ever in darwin. Love the videos bro, keep it up👍🤞

[@slothsloth4651]

Love these kind of videos by Luke. What a bloody legend

[@wizardnebula8572]

Love how enthusiastic you are in your videos. I generally fish pretty tight drag so that when the fish eat the bait they hook themselves.

[@samuelhfishing]

Hey Luke, my tips to catch some Barra and jacks are to fish close to the bank where there are lots of mangroves and structure (sunken trees, logs etc) and cast infront of those structure on one hour before or after the high tide and you should have some tight lines!

[@lukefalzon]

cheers for the heads up bro thank you 😊 how's your day?

[@samuelhfishing]

@@lukefalzon had a good one thanks for asking 👍

[@vascor9344]

Hey luke great video, I was touched very deeply by this video and it really taught me to value persistance. You have shown me that at the end of a dark tunnel there is always light, I also am on a similar quest and have donuted 5 times already, the day it does come will feel sweeter than ever. I think personally the hooks you were using may be a bit small, for the estuarine systems there tend to be smaller models so it is important to utilise smaller hooks to get a more natural bait presentation, as the fish in those small systems tend to be more skittish. Great Idea with using the cast net sinkers, you really do make the best out of a good situation. Love the video, keep em coming. ❤.

[@lukefalzon]

thank you so much for the kind words my friend 😊 it really means a lot to me, so thank you for that and thank you for the info you have shared to me mate means a lot, 😊 keep up the grind my friend

[@hamishanderson1152]

Hey Luke mate, I love the videos and just wanted to tell ya, that creek you were fishing in (with the flood gates), is called Hills Creek. It is quite possibly one of the best barra spots ive fished around the estuary. My father and i caught a 120cm barra on the other side of those flood gates. The trick we found was to spend the day catching large mullet (as big as possible but keep all the mullet you get) in the cast net, then spend the night standing up on the road on top of the flood gates, and fish the other side to what you fished. We hook the mullet through the back (like you did but a little deeper so they stay on better), and use larger hooks (specifically "Circle Hooks") because they are far better for hooking barra, since they are self setting. Good luck mate.

[@lukefalzon]

owww ok that makes sense thank you for the heads up bro it means a lot 😊 I am deff gonna try that next time thank you again bro and are you from cairns?

[@shanesimmons4733]

hey luke, i recommend using a circle hook when live bait fishing and sitting your rod down, the hooks ur using they have to be set when you get a bite, circle hooks set themselves a lot better. don’t be afraid to use big bait fish either!!

[@Mark-pz4ox]

Hey mate keep at it , you'll get a big one soon , my option would use Kahle 7/0 hooks mate are the go ,make a bigger live bucket , cheaper make your own .

Hey Luke, you seem to have mastered step 1 to catch a barra, which is getting live bait. Bait your mullet or herring through the nose. I think you are hooking the live bait close to the edge of the bait and it's just breaking off. I'd go back to that little hole where you got some decent bites. Try a lure as well while you have a couple of live bait out. You are sooo close! Well done.

[@wingitmissionfishingoutdoo6647]

Hey mate keep trying you will get there. Barra wont swallow a livey straight away, they will mouth it for awhile and spit it if they feel resistance. Keep your drag loose and strike 5 or 6 seconds after the line starts to run. Best way is to use a bait runner or overhead reel that you can disengage and then engage instantly for the strike. Shimano Calcuttas are good for this 👍

Creek mouths on a run out tide is always good - especially if there is a decent hole in the mouth. You want to fish around eddy's in the current.
