More on Fishing
There are three types of fishing
charters, Game Fishing, Reef Fishing and In Harbour
Fishing.
Game Fishing is a full day (9
hours) event where you travel about 30 miles offshore
in the search of big game fish such as Marlin, Yellow
Fin Tuna and Sharks. Target Species is determined by
the time of year and prevailing conditions and the boat
is in constant motion the entire day. Game Fishing is
an action packed day of fishing well out to sea.
Reef Fishing, also known as Deep
Sea fishing, is where you head out to deep sea about
12 miles out, in search of fish in and around the various
reefs of Sydney.
In Harbour Fishing consists of
a four hour fishing charter within the harbour. This
is a more relaxed day of fishing in fairly calm water.
