what is a barramundi
âThe barramundi is an icon of Western Australiaâs Kimberley region, prized by recreational fishers for its taste, size and fighting spirit when hooked. In WA there is a significant commercial fishery for barramundi as well as aquaculture operations to produce stock. Barramundi live in both freshwater and saltwater and dominate many tropical rivers. They eat almost anything, including other barramundi, and can consume prey up to 60 per cent their own length.
