Kununurra barra charters
Submitted by SausageSizzle on Fri, 2015-01-30 08:52
Hi guys,
First post although veteran spectator.
Looking to do a few days barra fishing around the Ord/Kununurra with my old man and brother. Non of us have any barra experience and was thinking a lodge with a fishing guide & boat each day.
It appears there are two operators up there; "Maccas Barra" and "Ultimate Adventures" of which the later is about half the price. Two main questions;
1. Anybody had any experience/feedback with either, particularly Ultimate Adventures?
2. Are there any other suitable options anyone could recommend up there?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
Cheers,
Sam

Apparently Macca no longer
Apparently Macca no longer operates, Ultimate Adventures is still going, Hairy Dog's an ornery old bugger but knows his river and Barra.

Yeh hairy dog
Or greg Harman . Will get you amongst. Overnight at their camp if you have time. Otherwise there is sweet land based fishing on the keep river mate. Head out towards legume rd crossing and head north along the keep. Heaps of tracks in. Just watch out as some big salties that are friendly down there . Recommend live Popeyes mullet if you have a throw net. Should get amongst it am or pm. Just ensure no rain on the horizon as tracks go to shit quick and you will be stuck for 24-48 hrs till they dry.
I head up there each year for a couple of weeks barra fishing . Pm me if you want anymore info.
