🎣 Tournament pro Dean Silvester and Brennon hit the Fitzroy River QLD for saltwater Barramundi and Threadfin Salmon — big tides, dirty water, howling wind, and the fish still eat.
Non stop Barramundi action on the Mikado Jaws 18cm Paddle Tail and the 25cm JerkFly Orange Perch colourway, epic slow motion Barramundi jumps, a monster that gets away, Threadfin Salmon as a bonus species, and the first saltwater session with Dean's new signature Mikado Shovel rod. Full tackle breakdown to finish.
