Make an adventure out of your next trip to Airlie Beach and go fishing with Get Out & About Whitsundays Fishing & Tours!

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Cero Mackerel, Coral Trout, Flathead, African Pompano Jack, Black Marlin, Nannygai, Queenfish, Sailfish, Red Emperor Snapper, and whatever else is biting. You may find yourself spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or something more specialized in this area. The fish caught are yours to take home, so long as they’re within the legal limit. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!

These shared trips are all about a family-friendly fishing experience. Whether you’re a family, a group of mates, or a single person, we will do our very best to make your time with us unforgettable. Being a small size boat, it is very easy to customize your time exactly how you want. Just let us know when you book, please. The captain will have snacks and drinks available on board.

You’ll be dropping lines from a 20’ Center console that can carry up to 5 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this, so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
I’ve been fishing my whole life from the rocks in Mornington to the Goulburn River around Seymour, off the Jetty in Glenelg, 'till I was old enough to drive when I first came to Queensland to fish around the mouth of the Don River. Fishing is my life, and I love to share my knowledge with people every day.
