Well done Silvie! Jelena's a crack up - I love hearing her commentary 🤣 Ease up on poor ol' Les hey. You've given him a workout! I also love that you get so excited about catching big mundies despite having caught truckloads
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.
Congratulations mate🏆14:00 best feeling ever👌🤴🏽Dean you need a bigger net😂 poor Les trying to shuffle that monster in, but he did it like he’d done it before👍You’ve mastered that live scan🍺🍺
Yep that net used to seem big but it was a mission to get it in there thats for sure. I was up him, 😂 but he managed in the end. I find out just how hard it is to do solo soon 😉
never fished the Fitzroy. always mondy, big A n PF. first quarter of next year that will be changing n the fitz will be the long term target. knowing u r going through the learning process ur self Deano i have been watching closely over the last few vids. i have to start somewhere so between google earth pro n ur self its a gud start. congrats on the PB man.
Thanks legend, yes it is an incredible fishery and so much to learn. I am and will still be learning for years to come, that is why we love fishing so much
Congatulations Dean on a truly epic fish. It's great to see hard work and perseverance pay off, and dreams and goals achieved.Well done mate! Just wondering what fishing rod/reel and line/leader and lure setup you use to target KO' size fish? Also any upgrades to hooks on the lures you use to please. Thank you in advance
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing I’ve been thinking the same thing for a while now. I’ll have to let you know when I’m heading up there next time and hopefully we can make it work. ;)
Congrats on that enormous Barra mate. I've recently been watching the Pascoe boys vids , they sure know the Fitzroy. You'll be giving Awoonga a bit of a miss from now on then ? Then I might get a few more .
Big girl my first barra was salty got of the plane at townsville got a bag of pillys took my sister fishing on the break wall one hour later 105 baz scaryest part was giving my sister the rod while i climed down to land it. Addicted now haha
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!
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.
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing yea cheers man. Chasing Barra an I found they would come in check it out an bolt on the pause. What tips would you recommend to enhance my chances?
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing we must be talking about totally different areas. I’m taking about the disgusting Fitzroy near Rockhampton/ Yeppoon / Port Alma area.
Want to chase these GIANT Barramundi with me? Lets go..... sportfishingaustralia.com.au/fitzroy-river-barramundi-fishing/
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...
Nice one sexy
I live on the river mate, come say g'day. Grey 3m poly and twin mast 45ft steel ketch
Congratulations Dean,always nice to catch a big fish but to raise the bar even better.Thanks for allowing us to joint you.
You bet, thanks for tuning in. That bar is set crazy high now but a fish i will never forget. So cool to witness in real life

Always get excited, the day i don't get excited about it is the day i give it away. Thats why we all love fishing i guess.
As epic as it gets.. fight of a lifetime and fish of a lifetime.. congrats mate 🫡
Thanks legend, yes very very special
So good mate. she’s a beautiful fish.
That’s what dreams are all about 💪🏼🎣
Couldn't agree more, appreciate you guys
Cracking fish!!
Nice combo switch there for the thready pics. Haha. Gotta keep the boss happy.
Thanks 👍
To all my Freshwater fans! How epic are Saltwater Barramundi!

haha thanks mate.

Great stuff Silvey $1.35 😮 awesome mate.. Duane will be impressed lol thanks for the vid 🎣👍
Thanks Andy, have to let me know what he says 😂😂😂
Yep that net used to seem big but it was a mission to get it in there thats for sure. I was up him, 😂 but he managed in the end. I find out just how hard it is to do solo soon 😉
🤣🤣👍
Awesome fish mate!! And even better to know that it’s a net free zone and they’ll only continue to get bigger👍
Absolutely, Gladstone will be one too at the end of the year so the entire region will only get better in the years to come
And the Narrows will fire all year....😁
Congratulations, mate on your pb, what an awesome fish.👍👍
Yes, thanks so amazing mate. Still excited

Holy shit dean well done there were some big fish but that massive Barra is what we all want

Long way from the Hawkesbury bream rounds mate and that Seccas course we did together the week before the NSW bream series on HB river

I just keep winding and get slower as i get closer to the boat, finding they will eat at the rod tip which is scary as
wow amazing catch mate
Thanks a lot! So crazy
Congratulations mate, you don’t get those ones easy.
Thanks mate, you surely don't and need to appreciate every one.
Well done mate
Thanks legend
Use the snatch magbite shrimps yet 4ins trailers for that lure are 👽 extra.😂. Nice fish.
Thanks for the tip, will look them up. The bigger the baits the better at the moment
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing yer paddle tails go wingman 230mm ripper detail.
Yeah nice mate
That’s incredible I’ve only ever get catfish there, gave up on the place altogether.
No way mate, it is the most epic fishery ever! Wait until my video goes live this afternoon! iTs amazing

Thanks mate, much appreciated
Kool boat, what sort is it?
Its my fathers 4m quintrex wide body mate, i rebuilt it. Full rebuild videos are up on my Freshwater RUclips channel
Was your previous PB 128 from Callide?
No i have a couple, one is from Faust and the other was from Awoonga. I have a heap around the high 120's also from when faust went over
That’s a horse. Gotta ask the question, what set up
Was that you were using to catch that beast??
Thanks legend, it was an Expride 711Xh and a tranx 300 mate
Time and effort gets the results
Thanks legend, sure does
Mackenzie?
