The lads on Saturday's full day, offshore charter landed Macs, Trevally, a massive Cod, heaps of Salmon and a few reefies. No pots were dropped on this trip, yet we still managed a boat record with this massive Muddie as it came aboard holding on to a hook with its claw when we were bottomfishing!

BIG Jewies!
BIG Jewies!
Jul 6, 2018 Darwin
These boys experienced a truly EPIC days' fishing in the Top End with Offshore Boats on yesterday's charter. First up they bagged out on BIG Jewies in a remote coastal creek. All of them over 105cm and all caught on soft plastics in 5m of water. They moved on to a stickbait session on Trevally. They pulled up for a breather on a reef for a mixed bag of reefies including Goldies and Big Stripeys. On the way back to Darwin, they stopped for 5 minutes at a school of Longtail Tuna, landing 2 from only 2 casts. With no room left in the esky, they left them biting. Incredible effort lads!
