Cairns Reef Fishing Shared Charters | Great Barrier Reef Fishing | CRF

If you are looking for the best boats and the best crew then look no further.

We are a locally owned, Cairns based fishing boat fleet with years of experience and knowledge to make for an exceptional day or night out fishing on the Great Barrier Reef.

We have 3 purpose built fishing boats to choose from carrying various numbers of guests.

Minimum age for daytime shared fishing charters is 4 years and 8 years for evening shared fising charters.

Our boats are surveyed for carrying large numbers of fishermen but we prefer to cap the number of guests to the minimum so there is plenty of room to fish and mingle.

Included in the package is only the highest quality tackle, bait, rods and reels, along with our experienced and knowledgeable boat  crew on hand all day to help!

The outer Great Barrier Reef is home to some of the most prolific sports fishing grounds in the world.

Fishing wise, Red Emperor, Coral Trout, Nannygai and Spanish Mackerel are just a few species you may catch on the day.

Our Great Barrier Reef roving permits allows our fishing boats to move freely throughout many outer reefs locations such as Pixie, Onyx, Thetford, Arlington and Sudbury reefs, where you’re sure to hook onto some seriously awesome fish!

Lunch is also included in your full day reef fishing experience which consists of fresh bread, salads and meats, coleslaw salad, spreads and condiments, along with customized water bottles which can be refilled throughout the day.

Another huge bonus of the day is that the crew will clean, chill and pack your catch!
