A couple of days aboard one of Hinchinbrook Rent-a-yachts house boats with Steve Jeston, Paul & Coleen, Peter & Sue.

Lovely weather, a few fish and a relaxing holiday for the whole crew. No fishing til you drop, back for lunch and feet up with great catering by the ladies.

Paul landed a great fish of 90cm and many more were caught and released.

Plenty of good size Jacks, Flathead, GTs and Cod to keep the rods bending and the fisherpersons active.

Barramundi season clousure is upon us, this means you are not allowed to take or possess. November is traditionally a very busy month for overseas clients, mostly Japanese.

The Japanese Bass fishermen are highly polished casters and do very well in the tight conditions. Landing the fish can be a different story, Barramundi and Mangrove Jacks in close quarters can take some skill and lots of luck to get out of the timber. Very fast and exciting fishing.

All of the guys managed a good size Barra or two, some big Jacks and the ever popular Giant Trevally. Most clients prefering to have 3-5 days to cover a few of the options in the area.

If Barramundi are caught we try to release them in the water or as quickly as possible.

Next month a few charters up at Tinaroo Dam should see some interesting fishing, lead up to the full moon is very popular at the dam.

December and January are very good months for the big fish.
