FISHING TIPS

Andrew has great success with live bait barramundi fishing – prawns and mullet, prawns being his preferred bait for this time of year. The estuaries Andrew fishes are rich in these species, so as a result the barramundi thrive in these areas. Andrew uses a dropper rig for prawns, with the hook going through the tail. This allows the prawn to sit above the creek bed. For mullet - a running rig. When the mullet are quite big he uses a bridle on a circle hook.
