my views from what i have learnt and experienced...
1) can we tie a braided line directly to the lure, does the line colour affect the strike rate.
use a leader...barras are very spooky...they might sight the braid...
2) which colour of lures are good for barramundi.
lures with a tint of gold...greens and blues...
3) At what speed should we retrive the lure when targetting barramundi.
vary the speed...when the water is warm, retrive it at a medium pace without stopping untill it reaches the shore...when the water is cold, retrive it slow (dead slow ) but ensure that the lure has the action...At times you can reel in at a good speed and suddenly stop...This stop and retrive action can be repeated to break the monotony...Barras stike when the lure suddenly stops...
4) Can we use poppers for barramundi.
i have had no luck with a popper but i read on a blog that poppers work in the dark...we will have retrive the popper at a slow pace but it should be dark...
