barramundi is also know as "kim bak lor" in Singapore, a direct translation from hokkien, meaning "golden eyes"
in Malay term, they called it Siakap.
to fish for barramundi, firstly you will need to know where they stay, their habit, and the habitat.
barramundi is a common around Singapore water, but however due to over fishing, this fish is harder to find them in the wild, but you can still fish them at those pay pond.
barramundi are a kind of fish which can stay between salt and fresh water, sometimes we call it brackish water, so in common sense, they can be easily found in the area where the river meet the sea. (so this is a very important thing to take note)
throughout their life cycle, barramundi actually change sex from male (when young) to female after they have participate in one or more spawning season and becoming a functional female by the next breeding season.
barramundi is well known to be good fighter, and will leap out of water, and it is a spectacular scene to watch. they will take live prawn, mullet and response well to lures as well.
lastly, to preserve our limited fish ground in tiny Singapore, please release those under size barramundi if you were to catch them.
