3/4 Day Fishing Charter Airlie Beach

Fishing The Reef & The Islands

During this trip you will be fishing using bait (bottom bashing) and jigs (jigging) targeting some of the many different fish around the Whitsundays & Great Barrier Reef such as Coral Trout, Red Emperor, Sweet Lip, Nannygai and many more species.

Our Skipper will do his best to get you out to the reef on the day as we can get you there in just over 1hr but, if conditions mean that we need the shelter of the island, he has some great spots to put you on to the fish!

About the Skipper

Ty, our experienced Skipper and Business Owner, has been fishing the East Coast of Queensland since he was a young boy. Growing up in the Great Sandy Strait on the Fraser Coast, he went on to become a Commercial Fisherman at 15yrs of age and got his Skippers ticket aged 19. Since then, he has chartered fishing boats all the way from the Gold Coast up to the Whitsundays, and through to the Torres Strait, the Gulf of Carpentaria & the Arefura Sea.

Ty enjoys getting his customers on to the fish and is renowned for putting people on to their trophy catch of Nannygai, Red Emperor, Coral Trout, Tusk Fish, Tuna, Giant Trevally, Spanish Mackerel and many other species on the Great Barrier Reef.
