The Barra Fishing Environment
The Northern Territory is a very large landmass occupying approximately
one-sixth of the Australian continent.
The tropical coastline of the Northern Territory extends west from
the Queensland border adjacent to the Gulf of Carpentaria, across
the Top End, which is fringed by the Arafura and Timor Seas, and
through the Western Australian border the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf.
This coastline is over 3000km in length, most of which is uninhabited.
The Northern Territory has a great deal to offer the keen recreational
fisherman; its waterways are unique, diverse and unspoilt.
The Daly River is a beautiful unspoiled river of serene character
with overhanging trees and numerous feeder creeks. Whether it is
the clear quiet waters above the crossing or further downstream
in the tidal reaches where the flood plain creeks merge with the
river, fishing the Daly is always exciting. The river supports an
abundance of wildlife including crocodiles and many species of birds.
Lure fishing is our speciality; your guide will instruct you how
to use all our tackle. We will have you catching fish in no time
at all; casting to fallen trees, gutters, trolling submerged snags
and creek junctions.
The NT Barra Fishing crew has a sound knowledge of the Daly River
including the surrounding wildlife and in particular the birds.
A Tour with NT Barra Fishing will not only give you the best chance
of catching the mighty Barra but also show you wildlife the river
has to offer.
In the interest of sustainable fishing we recommend that all fish
over 80cm be released. The viewing of extensive local flora and
fauna will enhance the enjoyment of your fishing holiday.
Russell Kenny's NT Barra Fishing offers you and anglers of the
future the wonderful pastime of guided fishing. We invite you to
come and share in the REAL OUTBACK of the Northern Territory.
