Daly River 13-14th Feb

James and myself went on an overnight trip to the Daly to prepare for the first round of the Top End Barra Series next month.

Most of the first day was spent exploring the river from No Fish down to Croc Creek, picked up a few at various spots and ended up back at Elizabeth Creek early for the night. Turned out to be a good move as the barra turned it on for the rest of the day.
These are a few from the first day.







After a reasonable but hot night we headed back down to Moon Outlet to check the run out on the bottom of the tide.
Got there a bit too late as the water coming out was really muddy, unlike the nice tea colour of earlier, so headed back to Elizabeth for a few more fish before heading home.






James outfished me over the two days and also had largest fish of 78cm until I landed the last fish of the day of 80cm which was also my biggest for the year.

Probably ended up with about 40 fish all up most being size .
Can't wait for the next trip, Round 1 of TEBS2012, back on the Daly on the 3rd & 4th March.
