Barramundi and King threadfin bonanza

G'day Fellow Raiders

Had a recent trip to beautiful Rockhampton with my son and my friend Jerry 

Idea behind the trip was to catch some quality fish and quality we did get into indeed

What a beautiful spot Rockhampton is with Fitzroy river being such a healthy nest for these species.

We fished with a local guide for 3 amazing days, each producing quality fish.

Photos speak for themselves, hope you guys enjoy!

EDITED The biggest Threadfin @122cm belongs to Saad, mine went 120cm, the ones in the photos above were around the 90-95 cm. All fish caught on live bait.

They are quality fish @Yellowfin79 - absolute rippers. What a difference a guide makes - worth every penny you spend. The young bloke will have memories and (photos) to remember, long after the old fellas have gone. I’ve also had a few trips where moving around and not having storage/ refrigeration meant the fish couldn’t be kept, but the photos “taste sweet”.

Congratulations on trophy fish. 👏👏👏

The biggest one was 122 cm, another 120 cm.

Thanks @wrxhoon1 Jerry you may have a record entry

OK these fish need to be submitted into our records here :)

@Yellowfin79 take a look you could enter several fish and make all the current records topple.

I don't think we actually have a Threadfin Salmon entry at all.

We would be honoured to have these on record here.

Just need to edit your post to let us know what these were taken on - bait or lure. 

It is about time Saad Jr has a log in if he does not alread have one!! YellowfinJr looks like a very good angler!

Cheers
