Yeah, that why you drive all that way and catch nothing. All the commercial fishermen clean out the barras. Rape and pillage with no respect for size or catch limits. Recreational anglers return 10 time to the local community that the commercials do.

Yes it’s a long way to travel to fish rivers that are smashed by the pros. Agree will you 100%

Was lucky to have the opportunity to go on a mother ship 2 years running. First year got one barra over 6 days fishing. The next year the barra farms had flooded the market. As a result no one was netting. Caught a metery and many others. Huge difference between the years. This fishing needs to be sustainable so these fellas can earn a quid over the long term, the punters visiting get a crack, and the fish get a decent go. Wild caught barra should be priced accordingly.

Well said mate 👍🏼

you can see how these nets could easily damage smaller fish and even big cod like the one they got in this, basically nothing gets past them. pretty tough on the fish and not very sustainable in my eyes but hey its a living and if they're happy good on em. that said i couldnt help but cringe at big barra getting thrashed with a crowbar out of the net then dumped onto the floor - quite different to their treatment by sport fishos hey

Hi Bruce I normally do a day trip in the tinny to the McDonald when I’m camping at the Cottrell. Love all the river’s along that coast 👍🏼

I like lots of people hate netting but its not thees fellas fault. They are bloody hard workers! Its the government that makes the rules and regulations. Great video mate. You did a great job capturing the better side of what's essentialy a pretty frowned upon trade.

Thanks Chris, yes all us anglers dislike net fishermen flogging the rivers Had to film it while I was there adds something extra to the episode 👍🏼

Fished the Kimberley’s for 15years from 2006 average catch for 8 angler was 1200 Barra for the week this year 50 Barra for the week there only 1 reason why the fishing has depleted And that’s because of netting the rivers that we fished have no access by road so you can’t blame the sports fisherman

Yes they are killing the river’s all over Australia, there should be a band on netting more river’s
