Ok, my tilapia reproduction has returned to is old formidable self, they are every where, only took a year. The poachers are gone and I think the barramundi are eating larger fish or are gone. I haven't seen one in a couple of months. They are about a year old now and I haven't tried to fish for them. We did catch two accidently, some time back, both about 8 to 10 inches long. Man, this patience is the key to so many things, why is it so hard to practice. I did catch a 5lb 2oz tilapia yesterday, that is about 10oz larger than the previous largest record for us. I was using a bobber and the fish hit it more often than the bait. I could see them take it and run for 20' or so then spit it out. I could put pressure on them and they still held on.
