holds approx 10-12 kg+ of fillets).  Any pickups on the night the charter returns will
incur an after hours packing fee of $150. After hours pick up can be arranged at no cost more

CHARTER INFORMATION:

These charters open up a huge area of remote territory fishing depending on weather, the time of year and tidal movement. The Tiwi Islands and outer shoals some 70 nautical miles from Darwin is one option for the neaps (Small tidal movement) and is home to huge Gold Band Snapper, Red Emperor, Tricky Snapper, giant
Trevally, Spanish Mackerel, with a stop at Cape Fourcroy for a session on the
areas large Golden Snapper and powerful black Jewfish on the way home.

On the larger tides we head past the Peron Islands to the remote fish rich
grounds near Cape Scott, Emu Reef & Cape Ford again home to Red Emperor,
Golden Snapper, Tricky Snapper, Jewfish, Tusk Fish, Bar Cheek Coral Trout to
name just a few and with some trolling thrown in to give the arms a rest and
the chance to tussle with some Spanish Mackerel or land a trophy Sailfish.

Please be aware areas fished may change due to weather or current fishing
conditions without notice.

Certain times of the year (subject to weather conditions)

For the truly adventurous fisho a long steam through the night some 170 nm will see
you close to international waters. Fishing the remote Tassie, Evans or Flinders
shoals, these trips are limited to the calmest times of the year and specific
tides. The fishing is world class, with some of the finest table fish in
abundance and some awe inspiring sports fishing as well. With exotic species
like the powerful Dogtooth Tuna, the electric blue of the Blue Trevally and
the chance to tackle  one of the oceans fastest fish, the impressive Wahoo,
all this between the main game, chasing Gold Band Snapper, small and large
mouth Nannygai, Red Emperor, Long Nose Emperor, Coral Trout, Coronation Trout,
Trout Cod and a myriad of other species never seen close to Darwin. On past
trips we have had several encounters with Sailfish and large Black Marlin.

Please note: Travel time on the 4 & 5 day charters may be up to 18 hours, mostly while you
are sleeping.
