    Awesome fishing trip, A++++++++

    Awesome fishing trip, captain was great boat was great the catch was amazing. One person on board caught a 110mm black Jew fish!!! Plenty more species caught as well. I can’t recommend Jim from Airlie beach fishing adventures enough. If your visiting Airlie beach and looking for the best fishing charter, do yourself a favour and book with them!!!!

    Fantastic Fishing Trip

    We had an amazing first fishing trip with Brian. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and attentive throughout the entire experience. As first-time fishers, we appreciated how he took the time to explain everything and made both my son and I feel comfortable and included. Brian’s knowledge, enthusiasm, and great attitude made the day enjoyable and memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic fishing experience.

    March fishing trip

    Had an awesome morning in the estuary with Darryl. He knows his stuff and is fun and easygoing, and as a group of mostly novices, it made the experience even better. Wasn’t the best fishing conditions but Darryl showed us how well he knows the area and everyone in the group scored a fish or two. If you’re in Carins and after a fishing charter, I highly recommend Fish Tales.

Black Jewfish fishing is all about power, patience, and payoff. These strong Groundfish live around reefs, wrecks, and deep holes. Anglers target them for hard fights, loud “drumming” sounds, and excellent eating quality. If you enjoy working structure and feeling heavy thumps, this is your fish.

Most crews use bottom fishing with sturdy tackle. Drop fresh squid, cut mullet, or prawns near reef edges, channels, and rock bars. Live bait also works well. Slow-pitch jigs and soft plastics can draw hits when bait is scarce. Use a tough leader, keep baits close to the bottom, and stay ready for a powerful first run. Fish hooked deep may suffer barotrauma in water over 10 meters, so plan to keep legal fish or fish shallower if releasing.

Expect steady action around tide changes, dawn, and dusk. Bites can be soft at first, then turn into a heavy load. This trip suits beginners who want a clear plan and strong guidance, and it excites seasoned anglers who love battling hefty fish near structure. Bring sun protection, non-slip shoes, and a camera. If you’re fishing offshore or in rolling seas, consider motion-sickness prep. Your captain will provide the right tackle and show safe landing and handling.

Before your trip, check local rules. Confirm licenses or permits, open seasons, and harvest limits. Regulations can change by area and may include size, bag, or vessel limits. Some places require release gear for deep-water fish. Know the rules, handle fish with care, and follow your captain’s advice for a responsible day on the water.
