Good video Dean - I especially liked the footage of the hit and first jump! From Gladdy to Maraboon is about the same as from my place to Mondy - we are so spoilt in Qld...
Those things are a whole other calibre of barra absolute monsters bro 👌 Love seeing you take so much time to care for the fish thats the best part of catching them Plus size mundies watching them swim off Congrats bro
@@DeanSilvester I can't wait Bro hope you crack that 130 while your out there would be a tough fight with one that big 👌 What do you think this one roughly weighed? Can't wait for the next Ep already frothing for it 🔥
Mate that's an incredible fish congratulations 🤙🏻 I'm about to start a Barra campaign out here in Hong Kong this summer so your videos have been very helpful,cheers mate🤙🏻
Good stuff mate, welcome to our pond. And good job landing one. I have landed a 120 not far from where you were. About 3 months ago. but it got me interested in getting a few more thats for sure.
Amazing fishery mate, i look forward to getting back up there and also attempting to chase a murray cod in there. Thats the next goal for there asides from getting a 130 plus
@@DeanSilvester yea mate for sure. It is a great spot. Look forward to murray cod video. Will be nice to see something other than the barras being caught out here. And yea a 130 would be a nice trophy catch.
Have heard of a few cod but it will take a session or two in the right areas to even locate some before you can get a bite window on them. Worth it though i feel
That's the plan! Possibly April or maybe May depends when i can get a window to head down. Giant Cod in this lake as well so may do a mission here to try to find them
Dean I keep saying the same thing, nice work mate 👍 I do have a question tho, you do spend a bit of time trying to get the fish back swimming the best you can but have you been in the position where the fish did no survived and what do you do ? Thanks again 👍
Thanks legend, much appreciated. I haven't yet had a freshwater fish that didn't swim off. We did have a saltwater one that was pretty much gone before it got into the boat and we tried to swim it but was unsuccessful so we took it home for a feed. It wasn't wasted, i hope i never have that issue with a fresh water one
Where did you launch Dean, looks like it's out closer to the point, I know around the boat ramp and where you first put in aren't all that user friendly
Cheers Mate , We had Monduran , Awoonga, and kinchant on the radar to do 5 days at each but car problems have put us a couple of weeks behind, we can only fit in one of them now , trying to pick which one, so we can still make the NT for some run off before end of April, still 2 weeks away from getting our car back on the road🤬, cant wait to try some of that impoundment fishing 🎣🎣🎣🤙💪👍
thats a tough one mate, the location and climate of he cod is hard to beat and ther is something special about them. But it is hard to go past the chaos that barramundi hook ups bring
Big silvey wat can i say that lure =big fish my 9inch rt in black n gold nailed n 104 jew and a 97cm flatthead same arvo walking and flicking 1 of my points in burrill.beast of a barra to deano crazy to be pb at 128cm of freash water barra crazy man legeand hanging for yur next upload
@@DeanSilvester got pics deano i couldn't get yur clear colour was spewing so I got 2 black n gold 9inch on run a 7/0 hook on a harlf ill keep try 4 a silvey clear yeewww
Thanks Dean,you have some great fishing areas up your way. Glad you can send them down south.
We sure do mate, thanks for watching on, much appreciated

We sure are spoilt mate, yep nice morning drive and you can be on the dam for the afternoon.
Another quality fish Dean 🤙🏻
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for stopping by
Another quality video mate, some big fish in that place.
Some huge fish in that lake, more to come soon mate.

No doubt! Those fish are XOS, have some much bigger models coming your way soon

Can't wait for the next Ep already frothing for it 🔥
Thanks legend, it would be pushing 20 for sure. They are solid animals
@@DeanSilvester that's so mental Bro 👌 Frothin for the next Ep already haha

Thats awesome mate, wish you all the best.
Hi Dean, awesome video again. There must be a lot of bait in the dams given the size of the fish. Cheers
A lot, you can see the bait moving out of the way when the barra are swimming through. They could literally inhale heavily and breakfast is done
Wow man. Big old bush barra that one 👍🎣
They sure are mate and they come much bigger than that i found out

You make it look so easy 😂 What a fish 👏
hahahahaha thanks mate, mentally draining but fully worth it

Hey mate, i just followed the bank around until i found a bit nicer taper to be able to get the boat in without sinking the car
Well done
Nice Barra
Cheers very cool
Great fish Dean, Do you think it would be possible to fish Fairburn landbased successfully (like Callide)? Looked tough going.
Yes, absolutely but have to have a lure that doesn't sink very fast as most of the fish are less than 2m down
would be epic to get one of those giants off the bank
Nice fish, mate.☝️🩹
Thanks 👍 love the band aid emoji
Gonna try and find an international seller for those Vanfook DT-58F trebles.
Where are you based mate? I can always ask the question for you.
Very nice cast mate big barra 🤙🎣
Glad you enjoyed
Hey mate, you got a video on the loop knot you usually use on smaller plastics ?
Its called a leftys loop knot mate, its mixed in on a few of my videos. I don't have just one specific on the knot sorry
You should try to go to fair band dam emarld
This is Fairbairn dam mate.
Great fish mate. What app do you use for bite times mate.
Its called fishing times mate. In APP store
Awsome bazza
What lake is that mate , all the way from the Pilbara in WA Would love to snag a couple Of those puppies on the way through 👍😁
Hey mate, its called Maraboon or Fairburn. Its near Emerald QLD

Such a good feeling after what seemed like an eternity 😂
Hey champ what is the app you just shown on bite windows please ?
Hey legend, its called fishing times app
