If you are heading to Rockhampton to target trophy barra, it's best to visit in barramundi season. Starting at midnight on 1 February each year, barramundi season stretches right through to midnight on 1 November and allows you to target barramundi and take home your catch.
When the season closes, barramundi must not be targeted to allow the fish to spawn. If you happen to catch a barra within season close, just remember to release it back into the water.
Rockhampton Recreational Fishing Voluntary Code of Practice (VCP) provides more information behind Barramundi Season and what is recommended to protect our fish species.
