Reef & River Charters – Gold Coast Fishing Made Easy

Join Captain Shaun for a personalised fishing experience on the beautiful Gold Coast. With years of local knowledge and a passion for the water, Shaun makes every trip enjoyable, productive, and stress‑free.

You’ll target Cobia, Marlin, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Snapper, Tuna, Tailor, Flathead, and Spanish Mackerel, depending on the season. Your trip may include trolling, bottom fishing, or live baiting with light tackle. Shaun also fishes for his clients using jigging and lures to help locate the bite. Experienced anglers are welcome to bring their own jigging rods and lures if they’d like to join in.

Fish aboard a comfortable 24’ 720 Marlin Broadbill catamaran with room for up to five passengers. Included in your trip: Quality rods, reels, and tackle; Live bait; Ice and cold bottled water.

Esky available to keep your food and drinks cool

Please bring your own food and snacks. Children are welcome, but must be supervised by a parent at all times.

All fish are humanely dispatched, bled, gilled, and gutted by Captain Shaun before being placed straight on ice to uphold top eating quality.

Remember to pack sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and any personal drinks (alcohol allowed in moderation, no glass bottles).

Book your trip with Reef & River Charters and enjoy a comfortable, professional, and rewarding day fishing on the Gold Coast.
