    Great day out

    Full Day Shared Barra Fishing on July 28, 2026 • 1 adult

    Great day, skipper was fabulous put us on fish nearly every drop, although some weee annoying little guys but that’s fishing. Needless to say we were taken to some fabulous fishing spots and the skipper worked hard for everyone to land a big Dew fish which was the highlight of the day, also the other guys were fantastic company and everyone was extremely helpful to each other great day

    We explored every barra soak on Finnis

    Full Day Shared Barra Fishing on July 10, 2025 • 3 adults

    We got so much out of this charter! We all caught fish which filled the bucket list. We also learned a huge amount about what lures worked best in different spots, and tips and tricks to avoid snags and to entice the barra out of their hiding spots. Today was a pretty ultimate day for this mum.

    Great day on the water. Captain Shane got us on barra immediately. He gave me some advice when we got to a new spot and I hooked up on the next cast. I would highly recommend Barra & Blue.

    Massive day on the Barra

    Full Day Shared Barra Fishing on September 3, 2023 • 2 adults

    Great day all round. Started slow with the out going tide but we soon moved a few times and found the pot of Barra gold. After 2 or 3 hours of non stop action flicking soft plastics, we moved to hard body trawling and once the tide changed the action was back on. Our guide was excellent and very patient teaching tricks & tequiniques to my wife and I. Overall it was a long day but action packed and very well worth it.

Response from Charter operator

Hi Michael, Thanks so much for the fantastic review and recommendation! We're really pleased to hear you had an excellent day out with Kurt. Kurt certainly works hard to find the fish, so it's great to hear his persistence paid off with a good catch at the end of the day. We're also glad you enjoyed the quality of the boat, gear and the uncrowded fishing experience. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Kurt. Thanks again for choosing Barra or Blue, and we hope to have you back out on the water with us again soon! Cheers, The Barra or Blue Team
