Run Off Barra Fishing
From March to mid may we can be found chasing Barra predominantly on the Sth Alligator River in Kakadu National Park but also on the Mary River at Shady Camp. The Run Off is one of the best times to experience the thrill of Barra Fishing, during these months we offer extended tours from 3 to 5 days.
Barra Fishing Day Tours
From May to November join us on one of our Corroboree Billabong day tours.
Corroboree is not only one of the most scenic fishing locations you can imagine but a location that offers consistent Barra fishing results.
Billabong Barra Experience
This 3 or 4 day fishing trip will see you fishing a variety of Top End Billabongs.
A perfect escape from the cold of a Southern winter and a perfect long weened getaway from the hustle and bustle, just sit back relax and fish and well look after everything else.
Run Off Barra Fishing Kakadu (extended tour, March-May)
The Run Off is one of the best times of the year to get into some serious Barramundi Fishing. Occurring at the end of the wet season when the floodplains are draining into the big rivers, Barramundi congregate at these Run Off locations for an easy feed. This congregation of Barra makes it easier than other times of the year to find the fish, this also offers one of the better opportunities to tangle with a trophy Barramundi over the magic metre mark.
Limited licenses are issued to operate sports fishing tours in heritage listed Kakadu National park and we have met the stringent guidelines set down to be one of the few guides able to operate within the park. These licenses limit pressure on the River and help to ensure a great fishery for years to come.
When Run Off Barramundi fishing Kakadu we concentrate on the Sth Alligator River which is only 5 minutes from your accommodation at the Aurora Kakadu Resort. On the neap tides a trip to the mouth of the river is also possible to target Black Jew Fish & Golden Snapper. Also accessible later in the Run Off is the East Alligator River both the South & East produce excellent Run Off Barramundi fishing.
