[paul ''come in spinner'']

hi all i have been fishing in townsville a bit lately with some really great results namely appleins weir which is the bottom weir out of 3 weirs were the salt water meets the fresh water,after all the rain the weirs have been flowing and the barra are on the move!!! i have been up there 3 times last week sitting on the rock with live baits out.i have got many barra in the 3 day from 40cm to 95cm but on friday it was something different i had put a live HERRING out that was about 20cm long and was joking and said that if something hits that it will be a monster hehehehehe. after about half hour i was kicking back and all of a sudden this huge barra launched out of the water and i was on and it was a monster,it was peeling line off my reel like you wouldn't believe and i was running out of line fast and had stopped him with about 10 metres of line left on my reel, after about 15 minutes i had got him up to the bank and it was a horse 1metre and 27 cm my biggest to date yippeeeee, i have to get the pics off another guy cause i had not taken camera down so pics will be soon
