NAMARNKOL
Namarnkol (barramundi) is an important fish for us Bininj. Barramundi are found in the ocean, in floodwaters, and in freshwater billabongs, rivers and creeks. In the old days, people used to spear them with djalakirradj (three-pronged fish spears) and walabi (traditional triangular nets). Nowadays, we catch them with fishing lines and modern nets. Barramundi are most easily caught from the end of the monsoon (March–April) until the humid “build-up” season (October–November). There are Barramundi Dreaming sites in many clan countries, where the ancestral Barramundi placed itself as a Dreaming being. Men and women say, “My Dreaming is Barramundi; it placed itself in my country.”
