Target Spanish mackerel, snapper, tuna and a wide range of reef species on the productive offshore grounds of the Gold Coast aboard our spacious 38-ft charter vessel.

Join Top Gear Fishing Charters for a genuine offshore fishing adventure on the Gold Coast, targeting some of the best reef and pelagic species our waters have to offer.

Operating from the Gold Coast Spit, you’ll fish aboard our 38’ purpose-built commercial fishing vessel, designed for real offshore conditions. The boat is stable, spacious and built for serious fishing, with massive deck space and a strict maximum of 12 guests, giving everyone room to fish comfortably.

Whether it’s your first time offshore or you’ve been fishing your whole life, our crew works hard to ensure every guest enjoys a well-run, productive and memorable day on the water.

We supply quality Penn and Shimano rods and reels, fresh bait and live bait, and we’re always happy to help — from showing beginners the basics to helping experienced anglers land quality fish.

Depending on the season and conditions we regularly target Snapper, Pearl Perch, Sweetlip, Jewfish, Kingfish, Cobia, Flathead, Mackerel, Tuna and Mahi Mahi, with opportunities for Marlin and Sailfish when they’re around.

We constantly monitor conditions and move between reefs and fishing grounds to stay on the fish and give our guests the best possible chance of success.

Your catch is handled using the Japanese Ikejime method for premium eating quality, then cleaned and bagged so you can take home the freshest fish possible.

Families, beginners, experienced anglers and small groups are all welcome.

And fellas… fair warning — the girls often out-fish the boys.

One rule onboard:

ABSOLUTELY NO BANANAS ON THE BOAT.

If you’re ready for bent rods, big smiles and a proper Gold Coast fishing charter experience —

Let’s go fishing.
