Niugini Bass You've heard about them...you've read about them...now see them for yourself - those stonkering Bass from the steamy jungle rivers of Papua New Guinea. Join Harrison and friends as they go on safari to the wilds of New Britain, living in a native villiage while they fish a river that has seen few white men. With the brooding Ulawan volcano as a baackdrop, rodds are ripped out of hands into the water, boats towed into the snags, the pistol crack of shattered mono reverberates in the valleys - the Niugini Bass is back. The Drysdale - a Remote River The spectacular Kimberley region is the last fishing frontier left around the Australian coast line. This relatively uninhabitated corner of North Western Australia remains today as it was thousands of years ago. It's previously unreachable waters are now being opened up by the wonders of aviation. Rod Harrison and friends fly with Alligator Airways into a remote fish filled Kimberley river. They trace this water from where it flows out of the ochre hills, through a spectacular gorge, befor spreading into a mangrove flanked delta and eventually merging, between glistening white sands, with the Timor Sea. This is the hottest mangrove jack water you can imagine. But there aare also barramundi, high-flying queenfish and giant trevally that pull like a bionic dentist. This is wild as it happens fishing! |
