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.
