We’ll be back
5/5
We had an amazing day with Donavan and Mickey. From first contact to meeting in the morning, everything was extremely well organised and smooth. The boat is exceptionally well equipped, and our whole family had a blast getting stuck into some winter fishing action. It pays that the guys know the bay like the back of their hand, and even though winter fishing can be slower, they managed to find plenty of spots with great action. We will come back for sure!

Captain Donovan and Captain Mickey were amazing. They were super knowledgeable and knew a lot about the fishing and the area. We caught a lot of fish and they cut it up and bagged it so we can take it back. We saw dolphins and seals as well. Well worth the price. Great guys.
