After 20 years as a currency broker, Stuart Reid decided to follow his real passion and spend his working hours doing what he loves - being on the water, catching fish. He has worked as a guide for 15 years now and specializes in introducing people to the thrills of fishing for Kingfish. His background as a currency broker in London and Sydney makes him well suited to hosting corporate trips, while fishing with his own children has given him plenty of experience in introducing young anglers to the thrills of being out on the water, catching fish. Your guide for the day will be Seamus, his skipper and he will make your adventure memorable!

    amazing trip!

    Afternoon 4 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    My son and I had so much fun fushing with Seamus. He was obviously passionate about it and very knowlegable. Seamus was very calm and gave us the confidence to reel in the big ones! We caught approximately 12 kingfish, three jewfish, and one snapper. We kept the snapper, jew, and a kingfish that made for great feasting for several days. Seamus fileted them for us as well. Beautiful scenery, perfect weather, great company, excellent fishing! Highly recommend.

    Reported catch:
    Yellowtail Amberjack

    best part of our sydney visit!

    Winter Jigging/Deep Reef Kingfish • 2 adults

    Seamus put us on the kingfish. We successfully reeled in 5 and the sharks got 3-4 others. Those kingfish fight like crazy!

    Response from Charter operator

    thank you for that and well done on beating the sharks
