This year there will be 100 teams in the closed competition with the competition fishing zone commencing 400 metres from the Fitzroy River Barrage. The fishing zone includes the beautiful waters of Livingstone Shire Council and Rockhampton Regional Council, extending out to Keppel Bay, up to Corio Bay and down to the bottom end of the Narrows down to, and including, Graham Creek (just before the LNG Plant). The 2024 Fitzroy River Barra Bash offers all fishermen the opportunity to compete in one of the country's premier saltwater Barramundi Comps.
