Captain
Drewe Jensen

Member since October 2018 Gold Coast, Australia
Background
I'm Drewe, skipper of Top Gear Fishing Charters. Fishing has always been a huge part of my life and over the years it's grown into a real addiction. I've spent countless hours on the water learning how fish behave, where they move, and what it takes to consistently catch them. Time on the ocean builds experience, and experience is what puts fish on the deck. I'm also a father of three boys, and providing for my family while building something meaningful around the ocean is something I take a lot of pride in. Through my ancestors being native to this land and ocean, I've always felt a natural connection to the water. Running charters allows me to live that every day — chasing fish and sharing the experience with others. Whether you're an experienced angler or trying fishing for the first time, my goal is simple: give you a great day on the water and the best chance of landing something memorable.
Techniques
I don't lock myself into one particular style or technique. Fishing has taught me that the ocean changes constantly, and what works one day may not work the next. Spending so much time on the water chasing fish has taught me to stay adaptable and open to new ideas. There's no single right or wrong way to fish — the key is reading the conditions, understanding the fish, and doing what works on the day.
