Darwin Harbour offers some surprisingly good fishing, including sight casting to barra on the shallow edges and flats with flies or lures… often within sight of the city skyline! But you need to be in the right place at exactly the right time and doing the right thing, otherwise it’s very easy to miss out. During my three years living up there from 2009 to 2012 I learnt a few of the harbour’s many secrets, but my good mate Glenn ‘Watty’ Watt of Barefoot Fishing Safaris has forgotten more about fishing Darwin Harbour than I’ll ever know. Using a switched-on guide like Watty can fast track your chances of success and is really the ONLY smart way to go if you’re a visitor from down south.
Check out my latest video on this surprising fishery, available now on my Starlo Gets Reel channel. (Link in the comments below.)

Last week, Our CEO sat down with Gerard Maley MLA: Deputy Chief Minister and Minister for Fisheries & Agriculture, as well as Minister for Recreational Fishing. It was a great chance to discuss priorities and the election commitments the CLP Government made to support recreational fishing and improve Territory Lifestyle.

Recreational fishers and the many businesses that rely on great fishing experiences in the NT will be pleased to hear that Minister Maley was very clear about the CLP Government's commitments to reform the Barramundi fishery by phasing out gillnetting over the next 4 years. And equally passionate about delivering on a host of other policies, strategies and projects to support the NT to remain as the best place to go fishing in Australia.

We look forward to working with Minister Maley and the team in his office, as well as the new Government, and NT Fisheries, to help ensure that your fishing experiences are as good as they can be and to ensure that your voices are represented on the important issues.

If you you want to catch up on the 2024 NT recreational fishing election commitments, check out our website.

Without doubt the toughest week I’ve spent on the water in what is my 14th year guiding in the top end. Despite what you all see on this platform and others guide life isn’t all big fish and flat seas.
We had our asses kicked by wind and record rains this week but my boys Mick and Ian stood and cast for longer than could reasonably be expected of them every day.
We are all a bit beaten and disheartened right now, but that doesn’t stop the memories, bonds and relationships from being created and strengthened and at the end of the day that’s why I keep turning up.
It’s the people, not the fish that keep me fishing. I recon if you think about it, It’s why we all do it.
Time to wash off the salt, grab a beer and plan the next ass kicking.

Lucky for me then, these rods make a mug caster feel like Lefty.
