Captain Theo runs a tight, small-group charter out of Sorrento — no crowds, no shortcuts, just proper fishing. We fish where it makes sense on the day: Port Phillip Bay, The Rip, or offshore into Bass Strait when conditions line up. If the fish move, we move. Simple as that. You won't be packed in with 15–20 people like most boats. We keep it personal so everyone actually gets a shot. All gear's sorted, bait's fresh, and your catch is cleaned at the end of the trip. Whether you're new or experienced, the goal's the same — get you onto fish and make it count.
