C9PH+H2 Middle Point
Your Hooked on Barra experience begins with check-in at our beautiful floodplain fishing spot, just over an hour from Darwin.
After a friendly welcome, your guide will run you through a quick safety briefing and show you the ropes. You’ll learn how to set the lure, cast it like a pro, and reel it in with the right technique to entice a strike.
Then it's go time.
Head down to our custom-built casting zones along the stocked freshwater dam. Using lightweight rods, you’ll fish for strong, saltwater-bred barramundi ranging from 20cm to over a metre. The thrill hits when that rod bends and the barra breaks the surface.
While you wait for the next bite, soak in views of the surrounding wetlands - home to wild birds, the odd buffalo, and crocodiles basking nearby.
We’ll be on hand to help you land your catch, offer tips, and snap a photo of you with your best fish. Whether it's your first time fishing or your hundredth, this is an authentic, fun, and wild NT experience to remember.
