Enjoy a lovely day of fishing in Australia’s productive waters and have lots of fun together with All Tackle Sportfishing. Starting out of Cairns in Queensland, you and Skipper Justin Gibbins can visit all sorts of fishing grounds, from rivers and lakes to nearshore waters to the secluded backcountry. The skipper will guide you and see that you have a great time on the water, so join him and create some lovely memories fishing around Cairns!
Your trip begins on a restored 15’ Cairns Custom Craft aluminium fishing boat that can accommodate 2 fishos. It runs on a 50 HP Honda engine and uses all the modern navigation technology which includes GPS, a fishfinder, and a VHF radio. The boat’s equipped with a wireless trolling motor so you can fish more quietly, a livewell to supply live bait, and an esky to store your food and drinks.
You, your mates, and the skipper will be trying to catch Barramundi. To do so, you can use light tackle bottom bouncing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, fly fishing, as well as drift fishing. You’re free to keep your catch and take it home. Also, you’re welcome to bring kids on your trip.
Skipper Justin will supply all the rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and drinks for the trip. On private charterts, you also get lunch. Just make sure you arrive on time and get ready for the adventure.
Spend a day on the water with All Tackle Sportfishing and have a wonderful fishing experience in Australia!

Half Day Trip – Lure Fishing
Justin did a very good job in guiding me to top fishing spots and sharing his knowledge! We where fishing topwater for Barra, Queenfish and GT and had many misses, unfortunately none of them sticked to the lure - my mistake or maybe bad luck ;) very notable was a 20kg spanish mackerel who grabbed my lure and unfortunately cut the line with its razorshap teeth! I thoroughly recommend Justin to anyone who wants to have a good time fishing the estuaries in Cairns.

Half Day Trip – Lure Fishing
Justin was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable of the area and target species. His boat and gear were good. We caught a couple of fish (which is never guaranteed) despite conditions not being great. It was worth the extra money just to have our party on the boat rather than multiple parties and a lot of lines everywhere.
