Sailfish fishing in Cairns- FishingBooker

Cairns

Cairns, Australia

Cairns, Australia, is celebrated as one of the world's premier fishing destinations, offering unparalleled access to the Great Barrier Reef and its rich marine ecosystems. Known globally as the Black Marlin capital of the world, the waters here attract anglers seeking trophy catches, particularly from September to December when grander Black Marlin over 1000 pounds are frequently landed. This seasonal spectacle solidifies Cairns' reputation for world-class game fishing.

The region's diversity extends beyond pelagic giants to vibrant reef species like Coral Trout, Red Emperor, Nannygai, Spanish Mackerel, and Giant Trevally. With over 2000 GPS-marked fishing spots across the Great Barrier Reef, charters employ trolling, live bait fishing, bottom fishing, and drift fishing techniques to maximize success. Estuary systems like Trinity Inlet near Cairns provide sheltered calm-water fishing year-round, teeming with Barramundi, Mangrove Jack, and Fingermark.

From full-day reef adventures targeting iconic table fish to specialized game fishing expeditions, Cairns offers options for all skill levels. Purpose-built vessels equipped with quality Shimano gear ensure comfort and productivity, complemented by expert crews who clean and bag your catch. Against the backdrop of UNESCO-listed coral formations, Cairns delivers a quintessential Australian fishing experience blending productivity, biodiversity, and breathtaking scenery.

While Cairns&#39; tropical location doesn&#39;t really see a winter as such, it does see slightly cooler weather from April to August. This is great for Queenfish and Trevally fishing, with reef fishing also good.

Light tackle Marlin season continues, with reef fish also biting well still. Offshore, the Wahoo bite picks up and will remain good through December. Peak tourist season continues.

This is the month for a Billifsh Slam, with Blue Marlin joining Black Marlin and Sailfish on potential catch lists. The wet season begins and will last through February. Don&#39;t let a soaking put you off!

The rainy season continues, with water temperature high at an average of 29&ordm;C. Barramundi season reopens after a seasonal closure since November, and Yellowfin Tuna and Wahoo are making waves offshore.

January in Cairns is HOT. Humidity is high and the rainy season peaks, making for impressive&nbsp;bites in creeks and estuaries. Offshore, make the most of the pelagic bite or target GT around the reefs.

July is the beginning of the light tackle Marlin season in Cairns, when juvenile Black Marlin can be caught near the reef. Don&#39;t miss the Cairns Blue Water Billfish Tournament to show off your skills.

Thanks to lower humidity, reasonable temperatures, and low&nbsp;rainfall, this is peak tourist season. Escape the crowds and target a&nbsp;huge Spanish Mackerel offshore. The majority of fishing done at this time of year is inside the reef.

With the aftermath of heavy flood rains, March sees rivers and estuaries stocked with tasty prawns - and plenty of hungry fish. Make the most of the Mangrove Jack and Threadfin bite as they fatten up for winter.

With the rainy season now far behind, May in Cairns sees pleasant temperatures. Fishing is good over the reefs, with Red Emperor, Nannygai, and Coral Trout making for delicious and beautiful catches.

Barramundi season closes until February. Billfishing remains excellent, with Sailfish being added to the mix of catches. The reef comes alive as the coral spawns and swimmers need to watch out for jellyfish.

Cairns is bustling with Marlin fishing charters, as visitors come from far and wide in the hope of catching a Marlin weighing over 1000 lbs. Inshore, Barramundi are biting actively. Mahi, GT, and Tuna are also caught.

Spring arrives, and with it comes humidity, which will build up until the rainy season arrives in December. Heavy tackle season starts as female&nbsp;Black Marlin come to the reef to spawn.&nbsp;

The area around Cairns is often referred to as &lsquo;the number one game fishing region on the planet.&rsquo; Go there, and you will see why. The tropical landscape of North Queensland is home to one of the most diverse fisheries in the world. But not only does Cairns fishing equal a huge quantity of fish species, it also boasts incredibly good quality fishing. It&rsquo;s not fair on all the other fishing destinations, really.
