All Tackle Sportfishing are based out of Cairns, in Tropical North Queensland, Australia. They offer half and full day guided fishing trips to Trinity Inlet (within walking distance from the CBD), and full day trips to some of the local rivers just south of Cairns.
Their newly restored 20’ Cairns Custom Craft boat is powered by a 90HP Honda outboard motor. It features a spacious deck with a large cover for shade, and can comfortably accommodate up to six anglers. It also comes equipped with GPS, fishfinder, VHF radio, live bait tank, and ice box for your drinks and snacks.
All Tackle Sportfishing offer both shared and private fishing charters, which are suitable for all levels of experience. Their half day trips are popular for those with limited time, while the full day river trips are often preferred by those who are a little more serious about their fishing. Private charters are limited to a maximum of 4 people for the full day river trips. Target species include Barramundi, Mangrove Jack, Threadfin Salmon, Grunter, Trevally, Bream, Queenfish, Fingermark and more. The local wildlife is another added bonus, and the Saltwater Crocodile is not an unusual encounter in any of the local waterways!
The crew will supply you with top-quality tackle and bait, as well as a lifetime of local knowledge and guiding experience, while lunch will also be provided on full day river trips. Don’t forget to bring your sunglasses, sunscreen, hat and camera, and you are more than welcome to bring a couple of beers along, however the crew emphasize that responsibility is preferred. Pickups are available by prior arrangement.

Half Day Trip – Estuary (Shared) AM
We fished in July so the water was quite cold, Justin took straight to fishing spot and, much to everyone’s surprise, a Barra was caught inside 20 seconds!! We went to another spot and ended sip catching a few more. Justin was very knowledgeable easy to get on and provided great advice. It was going great until i felt hungry and got a banana out of my bag. Well, apparently it’s a fishing no no and you should never take a banana on fishing trip. Needless to say, we didn’t catch another fish!! All up though, we had a great time on the water, caught a fish and saw a croc too! Really enjoyed it, thanks Justin 😊👍

Half Day Trip – Estuary (Shared) AM
這是一趟非常愜意的釣魚之旅!船長非常用心,會根據海況與時間調整位置,幫助大家都能釣到魚,而且他也很幽默風趣,讓整個旅程充滿歡笑。我非常享受這半天的美好時光,推薦給想放鬆又想釣魚的人! 雖然我自己沒釣到魚,但幸好從其他人那邊「取得了一些」,哈哈!大家都很友善又樂於分享,讓整趟行程充滿溫暖。 This was a really relaxing and enjoyable fishing trip! The captain was very attentive, adjusting our spots based on the sea conditions and helping everyone catch fish. He was also funny and lighthearted, which made the experience even better. I truly enjoyed the half-day out on the water and would recommend this to anyone looking to relax and enjoy fishing. Although I didn’t catch anything myself, I was lucky enough to “acquire a few” from others — haha! Everyone was super friendly and generous, and that made the trip even more heartwarming.

Skipper Justin was a top bloke who has forgotten more about watercraft than i will ever know. He put us on the fish as good as anything. Any missed hits were on us no doubt. Walked away with a lovely Finger Mark for dinner and couldn't be happier. Great morning fishing in a stunning spot. Don’t hesitate to book Justin for a day on the water. Thanks mate! I’ll be back for that Barra one day soon. Tight lines and fair seas - Sam & Lynsey

My boys and I were in town for vacation and booked a half-day trip with Justin. We had a great time and caught five different species of fish including two giant barramundi! Justin is a expert captain. Would highly recommend!
