Episode 208 - Jim Perry

About this episode

Jim Perry shares his journey and techniques in fishing for Saratoga at the challenging Big Russ Hinze Dam.

On this episode we have a guy who is new to the sport ( only 18 months) but is putting a clinic on for how hard work is rewarded on the water. Jim is based on the Gold Coast in Queensland, and his species of choice is the magnificent Saratoga, particularly in in local pond, the Big Russ Hinze Dam. Join us as we discuss with Jim about his approach to this lake that that many consider top tier difficult. What his motivation to achieving such epic footage is and his burning passion for these Australian native swimming dinosaurs.
