View attachment 65379I wouldn't mind catching a barra lol but are any if these aorhers good to eat

7ft 2-5kg is what you would be after, targeting flathead, bream, tailor etc.

Should be able to fish free if you've got just a speck of aboriginal in your blood too. If not just be on the lookout for the fisheries officers and if they approach just cut your line lol

The Ross River is within walking distance tho I thinkntjsts fresh water
Saltwater crocodile is a poor name for this species. Estuarine crocodile would be more apt. It survives well in salt water, but needs to return to fresh regularly. Plenty of fatal human interactions with salties in fresh water environments.
A good jetty or wharf will feel safer 🙈

I'll probably get over this hobby quickly seems overly expensive n complicated idk where the fuck to start lol
Well there's a bit more to it than throwing a hand line out, fish numbers have depleted, you get assholes dragging the guts out of rivers and even recreational fishers keeping undersized fish too.

So you kinda have to put a bit of effort in especially in built up places. Cant just rock up whenever like you'd think puffing on a joint and expecting to catch shit, it will just piss you off, gotta make sure the tides and wind are in your favour or you'll end up wasting your time. Otherwise it's a pretty fun hobby, exploring is always cool and you get to see dolphins and other animals if lucky.

I've seen a few dolphins pods swimming up river, fairy penguins and eels etc. get a few bull sharks up and down the rock walls too
