Barramundi slow in the lagoon

Thanks to knowing some, we got to take the kids aboard the Navy vessel parked in the harbor today. Thanks Tim. But when I told Sebastion this morning that he was going to go on a big boat, he got all excited. He was walking around the house yelling "gig boa...gig boa". I think he thought we were heading out fishing on our boat as its been a while! So after their sleep today I decided to take them for a little fish in the freshwater lagoons.

We only fished for a short time. And it was very quiet. Lachy landed one Barra about 36cm, and I missed a couple of small bumps. We heard a few little boofs under the weed, but nothing spectacular. Sebastion caught a little Tarpon, and that made him happy. I think we may need a bit of rain to get the water and fish moving again.
