HOOK-A-BARRA
Hook-a-Barra at the award-winning Daintree Saltwater Barramundi
Farm offers anglers and non-fishers the chance to lure and land one of
Queensland’s most prized fish, not only for its fight but also for its delicious
eating.
This fun and informative experience includes one hour of catch and release barra
fishing with all equipment, tackle, bait and tuition included plus access to special
viewing tanks.
Hook-a-Barra’s multi-species ponds are stocked with over 1500 barramundi ranging
from 50cm to over a metre, but don’t be fooled - these fish are wild creatures and
are not trained to jump on your hook, so our expert fishing guides are on hand to
help you perfect your techniques, land your spoils and learn more about this iconic
species. Hook-a-Barra is suitable for all ages and abilities with a huge range of tackle
and a fly-fishing option for expert anglers, plus everything a
beginner needs to get hooked!
