- At almost 140cm long this is the BIGGEST Barramundi I can find EVER caught on film. I am sure there have been bigger barramundi caught but this may be the World's biggest barramundi ever caught on film and I even had my drone in the air at the time. We all go fishing for giant fish, and it's incredible to tick this one off! Not sure what is next, I guess that unicorn fish is over the 140 mark.

That was or is the MOST memorable fish of my lifetime! Still have no words to describe how incredible that fish was and i still feel that the video doesn't do its size justice. Thanks for tuning in legends.
With the lures you use new abs 80 resin would be good get a number 2 or 3 sinker drill out add pin and a tow point fill with resin plus add micro spears to shell of sinker it is the new plastic hard bodies are made from and baits like you large cod lures are mad from mor spears added lighter it is.
HERE IS A FISH SECRET FOR THE LURES YOU USE. GO INTO A NEWSAGENT FIND THE A4 NOTE BOOK 📙 WITH THAT COLOURED PLAST COVER ITS ON THE WIRE COIL TYPE I USE THE PURPLE OR FROG GREEN PLASTIC COLOUR INVERT LURE TAIL IE ANY LURE CAN BE USED MARK OUT TAIL GLUE TO OUT SIDE SHAPE OF TAIL THEN COPY AGAIN BUT CUT DOWN FRACTION SMALLER X3 LATERS GLUE GIVE 24 HRS AIR TIME. WATCH WHAT HAPPENS HINT GREEN GREEN LOL 😂 HARNNESS UP IN BOAT LOL 😂 YA COULD GET RIPPED STRAIGHT OFF THE HULL OF YA BOAT LOL 😂 ENJOY.
Awesome fish but i will have to disappoint you and tell you I caught a 148cm Barra wich was filmed by my friend and photographed which would be by far the record.

Far out mate!! That is unbelievable!! Wow Dean congratulations big time. What an achievement and you bloody deserve it. On the new combo too! That was edge of the seat stuff watching you net it by yourself too, thanks for sharing mate 👍🏻🎣
Thank you mate, yes pretty crazy trying to net it myself especially in the current. Wasn't the prettiest effort but got it in there.
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishingmate you nailed it. That's honestly the coolest barra footage I've ever seen 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers legend, that means a lot
Jesus man. . And the fact you let that go and didnt drag it back to town to parade around deserves alot of respect. Incredible
Cheers legend, so happy to let them go. Would love to one day catch it again or someone else experience what i was fortunate enough to experience

There is nothing like being hooked up with a monster by yourself juggling the rod, net and boat to get those legs shaking and blood pumping. Job well done mate
Thanks legend, yep when i stop getting those shakes and adrenaline i am quitting
Respect for letting it go
Thanks mate, always do wehn it comes to barramundi
You are croc bait in that boat! Great fish, omg thats the biggest ive ever seen.....malcolm Douglas would be jealous, well done!!!
haha yes, is a bit of a moving croc slide! So far so good. Loved watching Malcolm douglas as a kid
Awesome fish mate 👌
Thanks you need to visit
Well done mate, nice fish, didn’t drop ya phone this time 😁🎣
😂😂😂😂 no phone survived this one but was worried about the drone
How is there only 34000 views such a sick video you are a proper pirate thankyou brother
haha thank you legend! Much appreciated
Hai mate, that is monster. Can I ask some question about trolling motor install to your boat ? What brand? Where can I bought that
Hey mate, that is the Lowrance ghost. I have an installation video on my freshwater CZcams channel. I am not sure where you can purchase, where are you based?
FARK MOI what a horse Dean you are killing it 🔥
😂😂 thanks legend, not sure how i can top that one now
Wow 🎣 congratolacion outstanding 👀🎣💪😎
Thanks 👍 very cool fish
wow amazing catch
Thanks legends, appreciate you tuning in
That is an awesome fish the ultimate challenge especially in the boat by yourself
The hardest part was definitely trying to net it by myself, salties just don't want to keep their heads up and quit 😂
Maaaaate, bloody awesome fish great video, the strength in your arms is admirable. I can only dream of fish anywhere that size. I still keep trying I love the fish with a passion. What size hook on the jighead?
Hey mate, thanks heaps. The fish was actually only pinned from one stinger which was a 1/0 Vanfook DT58 but the main hook is a 8/0. I think adrenaline helps to lift the big ones
Hey mate have already taken your advice on the DT58's, had a weekat Monduran with only two fish on the first day, and they were only rats.@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing
Awesome mate, better rats than nothing.
Put your saddle on that thing and ride it! Your on the fish of a life time and all I could think was "how much battery is on that drone?" Haha
Great content !
You and me both! I was so worried about the drone running out of battery, but i feel even if it did, would still be worth it 😂
Big barra 👍👍💪
Thanks legend, sure is
Nice barra mate 👍
Congratulations bro
Thank you so much 😀
No words 😮
Me either really! Just amazing
Well done bruz
Cheers legend
🔥🔥🔥
Cheers legend
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing anytime weapon!!
🙏🏽
That was epic ,i enjoy every single of your video 🫡🫡
thanks legend, much appreciated
You have set a standard that may not be matched anytime soon or ever ... u should be proud of the achievement and I bet Shimano is too 🎉🎉
Thank you mate, much appreciated! Its a crazy level to reach and spikes my curiosity to know what is out there
Would you have caught this beautiful fish without live scope.
Wow... just wow
Cheers mate, was a giant
What's the difference between the 200 HG and the 200 M
HG is the high speed, the M is the latest model mate
so happy for you darling, fish of a lifetime
Sure is, need another trip there shortly
That is wild bro! Thanks for sharing that with us. also did you say 60lb fluro for that fish? Why do I feel like that is super light for that calibre of fish?
Yes it was mate, its very good 60lb fluro but yes i guess when you think of the weight of this animal and the fight that is light but i wasn't really expecting something quite that gigantic.
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing when the stars align mate 🤙🏻
100%
Can anyone tell me what brand of plastics hes using and what kind of stinger please??
Irukandji sicario mate and its their Osprey rig
Well done
Thanks mate
Make sure you bin those leader pieces :P
I actually wish I kept them all, to see how many I would have collected over the years
Nice fish, mate. Should I say Beast? Starting to wonder Out towards the narrows.
Thanks mate, yes definitely a beast of an animal, the mind boggles about what is out there
epic fish
Cheers legends
Cara dan teknik yang terbaik ikan barramundi saiz idaman mantap mate 🤙🎣
Thank you legend, much appreciated
That was a big Monster. Sir can you please share the size of braid and leader line and which brand
Hey mate, i was using PE3 braid (Shimano Grappler 8) and 60lb Sunline FC 100 leader
👍👍👌👍👌👍
Thanks mate
Big barramundi
Sure is legend
Well done mate 👍👍👍bloody monster Barra.
What size/weight of the jig head, Please 😊
Thanks mate, yep it was a crazy one. I would like to say once in a lifetime fish but i feel like i can better it one day. I run a 1oz OMTD head mate. If you check a previous video i do a full breakdown of what i used to catch my first metre thirty plus fish
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing, Yes I knew the feeling mate and for sure the way you fish, almost guaranteed will catch bigger one again one day. Ooh I missed that definitely will check out. Bugger I bought 1/2 oz already 🤣🤣
thanks legend, 1/2oz will still work just epends on the size of the soft plastic
130 good 👍 👌 👏
Thank you 👍
Nice love ya work I have done it a few times now NOTHING LIKE IT HEY.
Awesome mate, no, definitely nothing quite like those 130's.
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing wait until the 1.4 and ➕ come out to play.
wow mate, can hardly wait! Have you caught them over 1.4?
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing yep hot water gladstone. There were bigger could not pull them up.
Will at some stage give dog tooth line a crack the new super line blend and new liquid steel jig heads and a mixture of gsr resin still playing around wit mixtures . Profile lure to be used will be brawler baits.
Massive
Sure is
Wow what else can I say.
cheers boss
What a ridiculous fish.... You would of had a little spring in your step for a few days after netting that one hahaha. That lure and combo should go straight on the wall in the pool room mate. congrats!
Cheers legend, yep big spring 😂 got it back again when i made the edit! Pretty sure i broke that lure off on my next trip 🤦🏻♂️
Keren sekali kawan 👍
thank you, very amazing fish
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
thank you
I havnt caught a Barra there for 7yrs. And I live there and try constantly
Grab a gold bomber and go for a troll ast all the rock bars mate! You will get it done
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing wow, I haven’t used a gold bomber for 30yrs. Back in the day when I used to fish Weipa for Barra I preferred the gold Rapala Husky Jerk for its superior suspending performance. Ive predominantly been casting big paddle tail SPs in the Fitzroy but when using HBs I’ve been using the Squirrels. I’ll heading back there just after next neaps, as it’s just down the road from me, and based on your recommendation I’ll drop the casting altogether, turn off my hummingbird, go get a couple of gold bombers, upgrade the hooks, start trolling about aimlessly, see how many catfish jump on this time. I’ll let you know how i go.
hahahahaha good luck mate and let me know how you go! I think you will be surprised
@@SilvestersSaltwaterFishing I’ll keep you posted
Queensland?
Mega fish really hung on ! Do you not weigh your fish in oz !?
Not really mate, mainly just overall length or fork length depending on the fish.
I’m sure there is other weighing methods, but it’s also not great to hang a big barra from its jaw
I have a sling bag to put them in but didnt have it with me, mainly use it for my offshore stuff
Still watching 👀
😂😂 thankd legend, better than watching golf
Must be a weak fighter, as a boy in Jupiter I wouldn't go fishing without at least a 4-0 with 30lb. I live north of that now, and fishing sucks everywhere but home.
They are super strong mate. Sucks that the fishing is no good for you, sorry to hear that
Slab! 🤙🏻
cheers boss
i believe Jeremy wade caught the biggest Barramundi and yes its on film 😉.
Bigger than a 137? I will google and watch it, keen to see that.
nah not the biggest. have a look at the local Rockhampton news, there was a 1.5m+ barra caught just near the bridge at the rockhampton barra tournie. It's guesstimate weight was 50-60 kg. A true donkey!!!! around the year 2000. Have a look.
Was it caught on film? 🙃 I did try googling it as I had heard similar. Will have another look, but yes that’s why I said caught on film.
Hi ! nice fish!
Thanks legend, much appreciated. Love the fish symbols, very creative
dean on a donkey
Thanks legend, yep a true giant
Would you have caught this beautiful fish without live scope.
Absolutely, I have caught more barramundi without live sonar than with it
