Reef Magic Charters 

5.0/5 (2 reviews)
 Rose Bay Wharf, Sydney, NS, Australia

Make the most of your time in Sydney and go fishing with Reef Magic Charters.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Bonito, Bowfin, Flathead, Striped Marlin, Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, and plenty more. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Your vessel for the day is a 43' O'Brien 43 sportfishing vessel that holds up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's always wise to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Reef Magic Charters is just a click away.
