In today's ALF episode we head for Lake Moogerah with former tournament bass fisher Barry Oxford. Barry has caught, tagged and released almost 15000 australian bass and has a detailed diary of his catches that he uses to find patterns in bass behaviour. He's also mapped 120,000 acres of impoundment for C-Map Genesis, and he uses detailed contour mapping to his advantage when finding and targeting bass.

Back in episode 586 I took the opportunity to collate and analyse the lures that had been recommended over 40-plus interviews with Australia's top barra anglers. In this follow up episode I've analysed and discussed the top twenty barra fishing tips shared on the show.

Once again, I've created an awesome audio resource for Team Doc Lures members. But I didn't want the public to miss out, so I also created a comprehensive webpage that covers all the lures and techniques suggested by my guests.

You can get the audio by supporting the ALF and joining Team Doc Lures here: https://team.doclures.com

Or, you can access the information for free and in full on our website: https://doclures.com/best-barramundi-lures-techniques/

Over the past few years I've interviewed over 40 Australian anglers who live, breath and catch barramundi. From guides to tournament pro's, influncers to educators, these guys and girls have notched up tens of thousands of trophy barra over the years. 

To help listeners pull out the numerous gems of information, I've done a detailled analysis of the lures that have been recommended in this multitude of conversations and have taken a deep dive into barramundi lures.

For my Team Doc Lures members, there's a full members-only audio available (check it out at team.doclures.com. And for non-members the entire analysis is available for free and in full at: https://doclures.com/best-barramundi-lures-techniques/

In her debut as an ALF Podcast host Caitlin Berecry-Brooks chats with iconic lure maker and Bassman Spinnerbaits owner Glen Casey.

Glen is a master angler and Caitlin does an amazing job conducting the interview. It's a masterclass on the use of spinnerbaits in all kinds of situations and on a range of freshwater species, not to be missed by anyone who loves inland fishing.

We're exited to welcome Caitlin Berecry-Brooks to the ALF hosting team and thought we'd take the opportunity ro re-introduce her to our listeners.

Caitlin started fishing with her partner, now husband, about 8 years ago and from day one has always fished with lures. She's currently based in Central Victoria and loves nothing better than to fish for Murray cod, bass and pretty much anything else that swims in her part of the world. She's also lived and fished in Northern Australia and on the NSW North Coast, so she's got plenty of experience on the barra, threadies and a ton of east-coast species too. 

When she's not fishing Caitlin works for Fisheries in Victoria on engagement and events management and now finds herself managing the WIRF (Women In Recreational Fishing) program that she'd previously joined as a community leader. She's passionate about encouraging and nurturing women and children into fishing.

Welcome Caitlin, it's awesome to have you aboard!

Typically when we think about squidding it's all about dropping jigs from pier, casting from the rocks or drifting a weedbed and bouncing a jig as we go. Trolling is not usually part of the equation! But squid can absolutely be targeted by trolling jigs - and the technique enables the angler to cover a lot of ground in search of his or her quarry. Today's guest is Greg Lamprecht, a man who's been at the cutting edge of fishing for a quarter of a century and is probably better known for his offshore exploits. Greg's been getting some pretty good success trolling squid jigs around Moreton Bay, but the techniques he shares in this interview are equally effective anywhere you choose to target squid.
