Our Skipper and Deckhand will look after your group for the day, show you all their favourite fishing spots and help with all the fishing tips and tricks, as well as cleaning any legal sized fish that you choose to keep. Our Skipper is also a Chef, so he is happy to share his cooking tips for your catch.
Dependent on tides guests can also experience the fun of collecting their own fresh bait if they wish by 'Yabby pumping' on the Broadwater sand banks at low tide, the perfect bait for our resident Flatheads, Whiting and Bream!
The Broadwater is a sheltered body of water protected from the open ocean on the eastern side by South Stradbroke Island.
As an added bonus guests can order a selection of food options such as Cheese & Fruit Platters, Buckets of Prawns or Ham & Salad Rolls so that their trip is fully catered as well! Complimentary soft drinks and bottled drinking water are provided.
