2025 Run-off kicks off with a huge 104cm Dhipirri Barra!
What a start to the 2025 Run-off at Dhipirri!
Michael Hall from Sydney not only decided to catch the first Dhipirri Barra on Darren Nickolls’ boat to open the 2025 Run-off, but he also made it a Metrey!
This 1️⃣0️⃣4️⃣cm beauty was caught on The Glyde Rock Bar – leaving the whole boat full of Dhipirri Barra smiles 😎
🗣 “Michael was so stoked with catching the first Dhipirri Barra Metrey of the runoff, and he did it with his first fish of the trip. And it was his first ever metrey, so that’s even better.” Darren said.
“The Glyde Rock Bar delivered straight away and we are geared up for hopefully another big season of Dhipirri Barra here at the Lodge.”
Congratulations Michael!
Now check out this story from what happened on the boat right after Michael landed his Metrey – sneaky sneaky Ron Finemore!
