Fishing Billabongs in Aus

Haha, trolling for crocs with live bait...
That's a big Barra they caught...........They can't breed in Billabongs so just get bigger.........bet that croc had been hunting that Barra for a while and thought all his Christmas's had come all at once.........
They arn't an easy fish to catch..........They will spit the lure/bait out 9 times out of 10............When they take the bait and run you have to curb all instincts to snag the fish, they run a bit then sit for a while then run again........on the second run that's the time to snag the line and then the fun begins..........big jumpers and fighting fish and have to have the line tight at all times because they are experts at using their gills to cut the line......Then just ripples

Don't think I'd be running, dragging the fish with me!!!

yea i'd be letting the fish go
The clips just funny, They aren't worried about the croc more concerned it ate their fish and the size of the fish........makes me laugh every time i play it.
Been a few fishermen disappear fishing at billabongs
