Ian Moody Sportfishing – Cardwell 

Has fishing the Great Barrier Reef always been on your angling “to-do” list? How about hooking that Aussie favorite, the Barramundi? Hop aboard Ian Moody Sportfishing charters for the chance to make your dreams come true!

Departing out of Cardwell, you’ll have access to some of the most tropical, fish-filled waters of Northern Queensland. Even better? You’ll be guided on your adventure by local and experienced angler, Ian Moody. No matter your skill level, he’ll happily work with you to tailor your trip to perfectly suit your preferences.

You’ll be casting off on board your captain’s 18’ custom craft Cairns fishing boat. There’s room on board for up to 4 guests, making her a great option for smaller groups of angling buddies. Additionally, your captain welcomes children age 7 and above to join in on the adventure. Why not make this a family holiday to remember?

Light and nimble, this vessel was built to explore diverse waters. She’s equally at home speeding to hotspots around the reefs, as well as cruising seriously shallow waters – she even has a wireless trolling motor to make sure you don’t spook your catch! On board, you’ll find top-quality navigational and safety gear to ensure a smooth and comfortable ride.

Depending on your personal preferences and what’s biting, you’ll have the chance to target a variety of prized fish. There’s Barramundi, Cobia, a whole host of Snapper species, Giant Trevally, Nannygai, Threadfin Salmon…the list goes on! If there’s a certain species you’d like to target, or a type of fishing you’d like to try, just let your captain know.

Each trip includes top-quality rods and reels, and you’ll be able to catch your own live bait at the beginning of your journey. Lures are also included, as well as tackle, bottled water, and a fishing license for all guests.

All that’s left is to find a free day in your captain’s calendar, call up your family or fishing friends, and cast off on an adventure with Ian Moody Sportfishing!
