Me and my buddy ( the one with the rod in his mouth ) went and did a little barramundi fishing today. The fish are on private property that we are lucky enough to get to fish when ever we want. Both fish are about 13 pounds and both were cought on 8 weight fly rods . we each cought about 10 fish in about 45 minutes. These fish are awsome.

That is freakin' awesome, catchin' them on a fly rod... If I ever go up there anytime soon, I'm hollerin' at you haha

those are cool fish, but don't look anything like a snook  

IMO they look alot like a snook   . From what i've read there in the same family as a snook and nile perch. snook are the smallest ,then barramundi ,then nile perch.

Only resemblance I see, from the angle of your buddies fish, are the gill plates. Other than that I don't see a snook look a like.

I never even heard of the Barramundi. Where is it from and what do they eat?

Interesting.  I googled it. It starts out in life as a male and then converts into a female, just like a snook.

The barramundi are from Australia. There brought over to sell as food. They eat baby tilapia and high protein fish pellets. The fight awesome, they don't quit.

your so lucky to be able to fish for them i wish i could

Awesome fish! I bet that was some serious action on the light flyrods!

I saw an episode of Bill Dance Catching them earlier this year. I then looked up the price to fish for them and quickly realized it was to rich for my budget.  It would be awesome to be able to fish for them anytime I liked!

The price You saw is basicaly for four people.If your really interested shot me a pm and we will talk. Bill dance was out there and he was a great man. There have been tons of pro's out there , the watts brothers ,and scott martin have also been out there,
