? The Longtails Have Arrived! ?
? The Longtails Have Arrived! ?
June 13, 2026
The winter tuna run is well and truly underway on the Gold Coast, with the longtail tuna finally showing up in good numbers! Saturday’s charter delivered some fantastic action, with the crew landing 6 quality longtail tuna and boating a solid cobia. Unfortunately, the taxman was working overtime, with another 4 longtails falling victim to the sharks before we could get them to the boat! ?? Despite the sharks stealing a few, there was no shortage of excitement with screaming drags, hard-fighting fish, and plenty of happy anglers heading back to the dock. We also received an incredible review from Matthew after the trip: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I’ve been going on fishing charters for 20 years and today’s outing was by far the best fishing charter experience I’ve ever had.” He went on to praise Gayle, Colin, George, and Skipper Todd, highlighting the effort, patience, and determination that goes into making every trip a success. Reviews like this mean everything to us and are a reflection of the hard work our crew puts in every day to ensure our guests have the best possible experience on the water. The longtail tuna season is only just getting started, so now is the perfect time to get onboard and experience the action for yourself! ?

The only recommendation I have is to expect some sea sickness if you're prone to that. The water was rough and a few onboard had issues. Even anglers who don't usually have problems did this day.

Watch the weather a bit more than we did! The wind is no joke and you can find yourself in some rough water where the fishing is tough.
