We had a chance not long ago to put a few casts in a place off the beaten track, where some amazing saltwater sportfish were stocked for the enjoyment of anglers. The high pressured fishery meant only the best lures worked, and as usual those from the Tackle Source stable shone...
|
Ready for battle. With more lures than one would ever need... |
|
Few casts in and a nice Barramundi would oblige. Lure in question? The best Seabass lure around - the IMA Sasuke... |
|
They weren't all monsters, but they all loved the Sasuke... |
|
Lures aren't usually effective in this locale where many anglers turn to bait to get a hook up, but with the right lure the difference is seen... |
|
Beautifully conditioned, these Barra were strong adversaries... |
|
The IMA Sasuke is worth its weight in gold... |
|
One after another the Barramundi fell prey... |
|
The Sasuke rules this court... |
|
Another beauty on the IMA Sasuke... |
|
A switch to another successful lure also paid dividends, as the new Major Craft MS-X rod gets a proper work out... |
|
The DUO Jerkbait 120SP ties this one up... |
|
A smaller specimen on the DUO Larus Minnow... |
|
Usually shy to lures of any size. The fish weren't shy about this larger profile one... |
|
The Imakatsu Rip Rizer scores... |
|
Estuary Cod were a welcome distraction from the Barra... |
|
A DUO Realis Vibe worked deep nailed this one... |
|
And continued to work on another shortly after... |
|
The Barra reacted well to the deep worked DUO Realis Vibe too... |
|
The DUO Realis Vibe is really making a name for itself in local lure fishing circles and its no wonder why... |
|
Here's an Estuary Cod on the ever-impressive Jackall TN Vibe... |
|
And one on the effective IMA Rock'n Vibe... |
|
Cod of this size are a prized catch anywhere... |
|
A big one that went hard for the nearest snag... |
|
Its the DUO Realis Vibe again... |
|
The fun went on through the day with these fantastic lures getting hits with all other anglers failing to register even a fraction of the hits. The Jackall TN scores another... |
|
But the DUO Realis rampage is hard to stop... |
|
With their acrobatics, one never tires of Barramundi fishing. The Major Craft MS-X rod works overtime... |
|
Totally scarred by day's end, this DUO Realis Vibe can see retirement soon... |
|
Another nice Cod on the MS-X / Realis Vibe combo... |
|
Its a fat fish, but the Realis Vibe was too good to pass on... |
|
Another healthy, hard fighting Barra falls for the lure of the day! |
|
Realis Vibe, what else? |
|
With the emphasis on depth, other sinking lures worked slowly off the bottom produced as well... |
|
The IMA Fletchette is a unique lure for fooling even the most vary fish with its unconventional action... |
|
The DUO Larus Minnow is another lure that hugs the bottom and the results are immediate... |
|
The number of nice Cod pulled up on this day is just astonishing... |
|
The Larus Minnow by DUO doing what it does best... |
|
Some got away due to sheer strength... |
|
The procession continues with yet another nice Cod... |
|
Like most others before it, the DUO Realis Vibe did the trick! |
