In this episode of the Australian Lure Fishing Podcast, we dive deep into the heart of the Northern Territory's most iconic barramundi fisheries—the Victoria and Roper Rivers. Greg Vinall sits down with seasoned Katherine-based angler Trent De With to unlock the secrets of catching big saltwater barra in these challenging yet rewarding waters.

Trent shares his extensive knowledge, from understanding the unique seasonal patterns to mastering the best lures and techniques for these river systems. Whether it's the short but intense runoff season on the Vic or targeting the big barra during the build-up, Trent provides invaluable insights that can elevate your fishing game. He also delves into the importance of timing, tides, and water clarity, and how they influence barramundi behaviour.

If you're dreaming of landing a metre-plus barra or just want to learn more about fishing the top end's remote rivers, this episode is packed with practical tips and expert advice. Plus, Trent's stories of fishing in these wild, untamed waters are sure to fuel your passion for the sport.
