Barramundi in Australia

Barramundi are the best-known sportfish of northern Australia. This draft collects what our 2020 episodes show and leaves the practical details open.

What they are

An ambush predator that moves between fresh and salt water and jumps when hooked. Many individuals start life as males and become females later. The species page has the details.
