What fishing gear is supplied?
We supply hand lines and bait. If you want to fish with a rod and tackle, you will need to bring your own.
Can we catch and release?
Absolutely! Catch and release is encouraged and is at the discretion of the fisher.
How many fish can I take?
To ensure we look after our fish stock and maintain a sustainable fishery for our future generations, we allow fishers to take 10 blue cod and one grouper per person at the most.
How does our catch get shared out?
Fishers on the charter are responsible for negotiating and sharing out their catch amongst themselves.
What do I need to bring?
Sturdy, non-slip, closed toe footwear (preferably waterproof for your own comfort), sunscreen, a water bottle and your camera. You will also need something to take your catch home in such as a bucket, or we have polybins available to purchase for $30.00 each.
You could bring waterproof leggings and gloves if you have them, but these are not essential.
A packed lunch is needed for our longer charters.
Information for parents
We can cater to groups with children too, but have a some additional safety measures for parents to note.
Children are required to put on a life jacket before boarding the vessel and to wear their life jacket at all times while onboard the vessel. Childrens life jackets can be removed after disembarking. Life jackets are supplied for every passenger onboard but for small children we highly recommend you bring a life jacket that has been fitted to your child to ensure the best fit possible.
Parents are responsible for ensuring children are sitting inside wheelhouse of the vessel while it is steaming, trailering and approaching and leaving wharfs.
Information for customers with a disability
Our crew are practical people who will go out of their way to ensure your comfort and safety during your charter, what ever your needs may be. The fishing vessel is accessible by a ladder when the vessel is on the beach or via a jetty which requires a bit of climbing while the vessel is in the water, however wheelchair access can be accommodated if we are informed well in advance of the trip.
