There's never been a better time to register for Million Dollar Fish and wet a line in the Territory, with competition underwriter SportsBet doubling the dough for any angler who catches a Season 8 $10,000 barra tomorrow.
The one-day-only campaign celebrates National Gone Fishing Day and everything great about angling. Territorians and visitors are encouraged to explore the Top End's world-class fishing regions including Tiwi Islands, Darwin, Katherine, Kakadu and Arnhem Land for the chance to hook a red-tagged barramundi, and turn their $10,000 prized catch into a $20,000 loot.
The chances of reeling in a prize-tagged barramundi have never been better. Nine barramundi worth $1 million have now been released (at least one in each region), including the Season 8 Million Dollar Fish, plus those from previous seasons. All are still eligible to be caught. Once one of the nine is caught, the remaining eight become $10,000 fish.
