Highly Recommend
Our little family of four just did a half day charter with Jacob, kids 5 and 12yrs old. We had a great time and landed some great fish, including Barra and Salmon. Jacob was fantastic with the kids and we would highly recommend going out on the boat. Thank so much Jacob, The Lambert Family.
Fantastic Day Out Fishing
Would highly recommend this fishing trip to anyone travelling to Cairns. The skipper is so friendly and accomodating. He gave clear instructions pre trip and even arranged a local restaurant on the esplanade to cook our fish which was amazing. Thank you for a great day out.
Great local knowledge
Jacob’s understanding and knowledge of the local conditions are fantastic. Great fishing locations where we were kept on our toes with constant activity from fish. Learnt so much, and had a terrific time!
Excellent Fishing Trip!
We booked this half day trip as we wanted to go fishing but were only in Cairns for a few days with our partners. Jacob, the Captain was an excellent host and extremely knowledgeable about fishing. The equipment was good and the boat was comfortable and everyone on board had an excellent time. We caught five species during the trip and Jacob even tried to find a crocodile for us to take a look at. A great little fishing trip that I would recommend to novices and experienced Anglers alike!
Great experience
Great experience taken out by Jacob. He was very knowledgeable and patient with my two young sons. We all caught fish and had a great time. Jacob was awesome, knew the area extensively and was very accommodating, highly recommend for both experienced & inexperienced fisherman!
