    I still can't believe I caught my PB barramundi and it was in the saltwater, not the freshwater! It still blows my mind, the size of this fish...

      People aren't going to like it, but impoundment barra don't count. The only fresh water barra that count are ones that come from natural waterways that swim from their own will. Stocked fish don't count.

    Hi dean! When using live sonar an you get a fish to follow the lure. Is it best to pause or keep lure moving once the fish is checking it out? I’m new to the live an sussing it out!

    • @SilvestersSaltwaterFishing
      @SilvestersSaltwaterFishing  Рік тому

      Hey mate, depends if you are fishing for cod or barra! I have found a mix of results with barra, some ate on the pause and the others ran away. With cod i have found they almost always run away on the pause. I think barra if they have followed for a while then they will hit on the pause.
