100/10 recommend!!

Pinky/salmon/Calamari (2 people)2 adults

Captain Dale was absolutely incredible!!! Although fishing is a hit or miss, captain Dale made sure we caught a bunch! We caught aroud 15 fish & 1 squid! To add onto that, he brought us UP CLOSE to a pod of dolphins & some seals!! They swam right next to our boat and it's something we'll never forget. If you're someone who doesn't like to touch bait, or doesn't know how to fish, Captain Dale will happily bait our hook, take the fish off the hook for you, cast out your pole if needed, and also teach you how to do it step by step if you want to learn. I also recommend if you don't want to be crowded with 10+ people on a small boat! He offers private charters, so it's just you and whoever you bring along! That was huge for us! Will definitely be booking again if we come back to Australia!

    Came for a Fish… Left as mmmFishing Pros

    Calamari & Whiting for 4 people • 4 adults

    Our 2nd charter in 4 months with Skipper Dale… and once again, he absolutely delivered (starting to think he’s got fish on speed dial). His knowledge of where to fish, how to fish, and what to use was spot on — we barely had time to finish a sentence before someone’s rod was bending. What really sets Dale apart is how he caters to everyone. Our crew ranged from 18 to 70, and he made sure everyone was involved, laughing, and actually catching fish — not just holding the rods for photos. For those of us who weren’t exactly “experts,” he was more than happy to share a few tricks… and let’s just say, we left looking a lot more experienced than we arrived. If you’re after an easy-going, down-to-earth skipper who genuinely loves what he does (and makes sure you do too), we couldn’t recommend Skipper Dale highly enough.

    What a Skipper, What a Catch

    Snapper season Charter for 2 People • 2 adults

    Birthday present for the lady and what an experience. Dale is a superstar his dedication to making sure you catch something is by far his number one goal. He knows where the fish are and he knows how to fish. His knowledge is on point. We bagged up. From the moment the first rod went in to the moment our last fish was caught it was pure excitement, hectic, fast but words cannot describe it. The birthday girl puts this whole experience at number 1 and it couldn't have happened without a dedicated skipper. Dale you by far exceeded all our expectations .We are super glad we got the experience of 'best night of the season' with you. Our biggest snapper 83cm long & 5kg who can complain.... Cheers mate look forward to our next adventure with you.

    Fantastic Day

    Pinky/salmon/Calamari (2 people) • 2 adults • 1 child

    My son and I did a charter with Dale, couldn’t recommend it any more highly. Dale was a great host, very patient and really looked after my son making sure he had a great trip and helping him catch squid and snapper.

    We have taken many fishing trips over the years, but this was one of the best. Captain Dale did a great job of getting us on the fish and we had a great time. I highly recommend Captain Dale and Twilight Charter!

    Best fishing trip for my family and kids

    Pinky/salmon/Calamari (4 people) • 4 adults • 2 children

    We catch lots of pinky and squid. Captain Dale is so helpful and nice. Highly recommend for family with kids around 8-10years old like us. Our kids had really great time yesterday.
