We have been getting a lot of information on both Darwin and
Bynoe harbours. Plenty of small pelagics
around, with some big ones hunting them up.
On the flats heaps of smaller
barra, up to the 60cm size. The barra
seem to be on the little bit higher tides in the creek mouths around small
bushes. Jim came across mobs of barra in
groups of a dozen or so that were all tailing.
The fish were black, not the normal silver with yellow tails.
We were wondering if
they were newly arrived in the saltwater from the fresh upstream and acclimatising to the salt? Who knows.
Some have been out and into the sailfish, they had a ball, but
I will leave that for another story.
Tides this weekend are very slow and rising slowly from around 3m early morning to just under 5m
in some places. So nice easy flow for
those of you who want to explore without getting stuck. Maybe not the best for fishing, but who
knows.
At least you are on the
water. There are no fish in the lounge
room.
