Great boat, fishing gear and guide. Worried about Crocs getting in boat, no chance, nice high sides both in and out, to keep everyone safe and to ensure everyone enjoys their fishing. This estuary fishing experience will show you the unseen part of Cairns that from the car cannot provide, if your reading this, you'll love the experience too!

Estuaries are definitely quiet in the winter in August, however reef and topwater are good as always. If you were looking to fish the estuary, book for summer months in February and March, where you can legally keep the barramundi's while also hooking a good amount of them

Note: the link to the location of the boat is wrong. It showed the Cairns marina (where snorkel boats leave from).

Be prepared for all types of weather and that any catch is a good catch. We went in May and this day was cloudy and the temp had dropped. It was an estuary morning half day trip, I caught a Blue Salmon..other species caught on the trip were Trevally, Mangrove Jack and Grunter. So although the dream was of a Barramundi...just remember to enjoy the thrill, the company and that each day brings a different catch!

Book a private charter with one that caters to your numbers. Highly recommend Gone Fishing charter. I think they can take up to 8 but check that
