Our fourth or fifth time out with Daz! My son Leo and I have the best time onboard with the big fella, always get fish and a great chat. My boy says it’s his favourite thing to in cairns, I’d have to agree. See you in December when we come up for Leos birthday!

My partner and I had a great morning out with Daryl, with plenty of fish and banter as we were very competitive, also Daryl was very knowledgeable not just fishing but also the cairns area, highly recommend

It was a windy day and we decided to try estuary fishing and it was a great choice. The bay itself it’s quite big and we caught some big fish. Would go again, when in cairns.
