slinkymalinky Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Can't believe I missed your post mate. That's an incredible fish and a top result for really putting in all the effort. With the amount of work you've been doing lately I'm glad you really got a memorable trip. That fish is an absolute PIG and I want one too! Absolutely amazing stuff Cheers, Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Well done, Grant on such a terrific Barra!! You really do deserve it! just goes to show you have to cast right until the last moment ..... & beyond!!! I was with Slinky when he took the call that you were going to have to miss out on the Awoonga part of the trip (with cabins & all ......) so all the more to you for getting the beastie at Monduran, out of a tent! I've been chasing the vodaphone link for the last 2 weeks & it wouldn't show it to me!! Aaaaaghhhh! Finally, I found the fish!! YAAAAAY!!! WHAT A RIPPER!!!! BEAUTIFUL BARRA!! Bring on next year!!! Cheerio Roberta Will have to catch up with Max to get his version of the story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Frost Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Well done getting your personal best Barramundi in the last few minutes, Grant... Having a chance of catching top fish like that certainly made the trip up there well worthwhile for your Sydney friends. Cheers jewgaffer Well I was glad you hooked that Beast in the few remaining secounds we had ,and not me after you cracked your 4th beer . Had a ball mate , just like when we went to Weipa , can't wait for the next adventure and it really made my day to see you join the club Congrats mate , your a Champion . .

P.s Here is the fish from Awoonga, Bubba to the site Dan. Great to see you finally make a post!! The big Bubba with a bloody big Barra!!!! You deserved that fish after all your efforts in the past mate. Thanks for making me want to join the 115cm club ! I can feel a new boat coming on. Thanks also for all your help on rigging & techniques for a 1st time big barra dam fisher. I won't mention that I caught my fish on the outfit I borrowed from you & just how lucky you are that you still have that Millerod/Curado combo! I'm looking forward to some more pics & reports from your recent exploits mate. From what you showed me on your camera they are well worth sharing. Sitdownfranny!!! Cheers, Grant.

You should come for a spin with me on my new boat , I don't have it yet but im supposed to be picking up a skeeter ZX170 with a 115HO mid december , we could hit some of those summer whiting on the surface lures and a few bream. Like last year i will probably spend a bit of time up the wallingat as well . Let me know if your keen . Dan Bubba Frost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Woohoo!!! More than keen would be the word, I reckon! That would be fantastic, Dan! I would love to get out & fish with you! You won't have to ask me twice!! I will pm you my contact numbers! That was so much fun last year, chasing those whiting with you near by! I've been practising my top water action since, too! Been playing with 1lb crystal on one rod & having lots of fun too! Cheerio Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewhunter Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 That's not fair!! Roberta, you will probably get to fish in the new Skeeter before me! Have fun you 2! Cheers, Grant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
