Fishing in Runaway Bay

The Runaway Bay fishing scene is as diverse as can be. A wide range of productive fishing spots offers great reef adventures, where you can target Cobia, Tuna, Snapper, and Sweetlip Emperor. You can also head out far offshore and pursuit Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Wahoo, Sailfish, or Yellowtail Amberjack.
 
With local fishing guides, you’ll easily find trips that range from only a few hours in the bay for beginners to 12-hour quests for hardcore anglers. The trip prices are set to accommodate everyone’s needs, which means you can pay from A$90 per person on a shared trip and stay within your budget! On the other hand, if you’re fishing with a large group of friends, several charters have the capacity for more than 10 guests with the option of booking a private package.
 
Less than an hour’s ride from the center of Brisbane, Runaway Bay is well known for Sea World, spas, and shopping centers. Your visit here will be a fun and relaxing experience, as you’ll have plenty of things to do and see after your fishing trip.

Make sure you speak with the skipper about payment and pick-up location! Seemed some info on the generic website can be misleading.

Went out for a morning session with Captain Vincent with the family of 5. Kids (15,14 &9) all had an amazing time. Everyone caught something and Vincent was kind, infinitely patient and went above and beyond to ensure we had a top day. Absolutely recommended and we will be back for sure!

We came to the Gold Coast for our honeymoon and booked a fishing trip. It was a fantastic experience with great weather and beautiful scenery. The fishing itself was a lot of fun, but what made it even better was how the captain took special care of my wife to ensure she enjoyed the fishing too. We truly appreciated it. Thank you, Captain!

My son and I had never been fishing and this was the best morning out! Vince our captain was brilliant, so patient, encouraging, helpful and he truly made it such a positive experience. My son (10 years old) has ASD and spends a lot of time gaming and to see his joy and excitement (and ability to remain engaged on a 3 hour boat trip!) speaks volumes. Apparently fishing is his new favourite hobby. I can’t recommend this enough! Thanks Vince for making this such a great experience.
