Lately we have seen a lot about poor fishing at Corroboree. So I hope this may cheer you up a bit. Back in 2006 it was a bit gloomy too, but on the 24th of April, cyclone 'Monica'came through and put heaps of water out there. This little story from Wayne Hinton give you a bit of a picture of the fishing after that in May.

N.T Runoff firing

"Fellas, went out to Corroboree Billabong today which is only accessable from the Rock Hole side due to the large amount of water still present after the cyclone. We had one of those days that you only come across every blue moon. We were in the right place at the right time and found a gutter that had barra stacked up on it as this as the mossies were at the boat ramp.

An incredible 185 barra came over the side of the boat, and around the 230 fish mark, including tarpon, and toga.

The barra ranged from 30cm up the the 75cm mark. I have to thank Roger Bassett the deckie, who stayed back so I could break the magic 100 mark. Thanks mate!"
