Who's hanging for a weekend on the water? 🎣 Thanks to @wendyjane16 for using the hashtag #MillionDollarFish, and yew what a catch πŸ™Œ She's now in the running to win an official Million Dollar Fish shirt! We'll be drawing a new winner every month throughout the competition, so start sharing fishos. Competition T&Cs can be found at the link in our bio.
Ok fishos, we've rounded up those Million Dollar Myths and here were the three most common: 𝗠𝗬𝗧𝗛: The Million Dollar Fish is a metrey. 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: We can’t tell you exactly how big the eight Million Dollar Fish are, but none of them were over a metre long when released. They’ve been living their best life grabbing a feed in Territory waterways teeming with tucker, so they’re probably nice and fat, but we can’t predict how long they are. 🐟 𝗠𝗬𝗧𝗛: No tagged fish have been released in remote regions. 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: Defo not true. We have released tagged fish at a heap of locations right across the five main fishing regions – Darwin, Kakadu, Katherine, Arnhem Land and the Tiwi Islands. And we can confirm that, over the course of the competition, at least one fish worth a million bucks has now been released in each of those regions. So you really have a chance of catching a tagged fish pretty much anywhere. 🐟 𝗠𝗬𝗧𝗛: People only ever catch a tagged fish at the start of the season. 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: We do see plenty of fish caught at the start of each season. Three tagged fish were caught in the first four days of Season 6. But we see fish caught throughout the six months of each season and, in March last year, five months in, a lucky fisho caught a $10,000 barra that was actually worth $20,000. Sometimes good things come to those who wait! What myth needs busting next? πŸ“Έ: Tourism NT, Tom Laurence
