We only take whole boat bookings. You can find prices and passenger numbers for various trip options listed below.

You can look up the booking calendar to check if a particular date is available. There is always a long waiting list for weekends, so, if you need a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, please book early. If your group can get together during the week, we can usually arrange a weekday charter on short notice.

The departure and set down times shown below relate to pick up from the Balmain/Darling Harbour/Lavender Bay area. Please let us know if you would like to arrange different times/places.

We don't normally offer shared charters for singles and small groups. We don't have gift vouchers for individuals but a gift certificate for a full charter is available and the recipient/s can then arrange the first available date.


Reef and bottom fishing - Day trip

Available 7 days a week, all seasons - our most popular trip, suitable for social and corporate groups, birthdays, etc. People relax, do some fishing and usually catch a feed of fine table fish.

We fish 5 to 10 kM offshore, over a selection of the productive reefs and fish feeding grounds within easy reach of Sydney. Depending on conditions, 12-14 people can fish at the same time. In most social groups this works out well, because several people are happy to relax, socialise, take photos and take turns fishing. - If you are all die-hard fishos, however, we suggest limiting your numbers.

Includes the boat and crew, top quality fishing tackle and bait, instruction and assistance when necessary.

Minimum price $1,200 for up to 12 people, then $100 per extra person, maximum 20 people.

Time: usually 5:45 am to around 1:30 pm


Reef and bottom fishing - Twilight trip

Available during the daylight saving period from November to March. Similar to the day trip listed above but in the evening. Includes the boat and crew, top quality fishing tackle and bait, instruction and assistance when necessary.

Minimum price $1,200 for up to 12 people, then $100 per extra person, maximum 20 people.

Time: 2:00/2:15 pm to sunset.


Light Game & Deep Reef fishing

Maximum 10 anglers. We travel further out to fishing spots like 'Twelve Mile' and similar grounds. Fish caught on these deeper reefs include snapper, kingfish, trevally and long fin perch. On the way we troll a spread of lures for light tackle gamefish. Fishing these spots, however, is not always possible, because it depends on the ocean current - if the current is too strong we can't fish. Includes the boat and crew, top quality fishing tackle and bait, instruction and assistance when necessary.

$1,400 for up to 10 people.

Time: 5:45 am to around 2:30 pm


Game Fishing

Maximum 6 anglers. Only available mid-week unless booked well in advance. May include very deep water drop-line fishing if the conditions of wind and current are suitable. We target different fish acording to season - contact us for more details. Includes the boat and crew, top quality fishing tackle and bait, instruction and assistance when necessary.

$1,650 for up to 6 people.

A 10 hour day - 6:00 am start.
