Well let me tell you. ,it’s been so good to get back out to the reef again after what’s seemed like a lifetime, and did it turn it on ,I had a single guy on from Hervey Bay yesterday ,and did he catch fish .He bagged out on Nannie’s ,caught big bludger trevallies ,big cobia ,tea leaf trevally ,spangled emporer ,pink ear emporer ,goldspot cod by the heaps ,there was only one hick up ,….no pics ….lets say the bag where the camera sits was still sitting there where I put it to not forget it ……that’s another story ,anyway there is good side to this ,the guest was hopping on a plane today so I got some quality fish for my freezer which I needed , plus the dogs got a bit of bycatch ,so was a win win for me ,the only drama is you got to look at me holding up the fish for the pics ,all jokes aside thanks for the great day yesterday John I had a blast bring on the rest of the week

Just another feel good story as well ….we had just got back to the ramp in port and disembarked my guests and I seen a young fellow fishing on the pontoon ,I had 2 live herrings left in the live well and I asked him if he would like to use them ,his eyes lit up and said politely yes I sure would ,well by the time I had reversed the trailer down to the waters edge there was a very excited young fellow fighting a fish ,and he had a lot of the guests standing and cheering him on from the tin shed as well …after a short period of time he had landed a 490mm jack that he claimed to be his pb ,how cool was this ….good on you young fellow …another fishing tragic in the making ….

16/04/2024

We braved it out there today in rainy conditions .i had a nice couple on board today wanting to experience some fishing in Australia ,well with the wild weather and 200mm of rain overnight the estuary was challenging to say the least .however about 1.5hrs after the tide change a nice 700mm Barra tail walked on the water with one of my champion lures in its mouth unfortunately after a couple big jumps and runs we jumped him off …..bummer ,then we went up the system to try for another one on the run in tide and bang ….a nice size ray that gave lars some rod bending action .also got up close and personal again with one of our resident crocs which kept our guests excited

Well how good was this ,I got a guy from the states booked me three months ago to go get him on a gt on a surface lure ,he said he studied the best way for him to catch a bucket list fish over the couple of weeks prior to booking me ,and reckoned he had a pretty good chance of catching that fish with me at cairns sportfishing .well it’s just so turned out he was dead right .we got him one today and you know from a guides point of view there is nothing more satisfying then catching your guest there target species ,sometimes it’s adds pressure when the days is getting on and your on cast number 500 and you changed lures every thirty throws and then out of the blue you yell 11 o’clock for your guest to throw one and the lure gets boofed ,maybe not the biggest gt we have seen but never the less a nice size for his first gt and to watch the smile it puts on there face it makes this job truely rewarding…bring on tomorrow
