There’s nothing quite like the adrenaline rush you experience when you hook your first big barramundi – or even your fiftieth. And as unlikely as that sounds, in the Territory’s untouched, fish filled waters, it’s a reality.
Get a feel for what’s beneath the surface on a day trip with
Darwin’s Barra Base. Scan glistening rivers and billabongs for saratoga, tarpon and fork tailed catfish, and keep an eye out for our mighty saltwater crocodiles. Luckily, there’s more than enough catch for the two of you!
Venture further out to our ocean reefs with
Equinox Fishing Charters for a week of chasing jewfish, coral trout, red emperor and spanish mackerel, with the tropical Tiwi Islands in the background. The size, weight and power of these species will test your skills and deliver a true sense of achievement when you pull them in.
Sink your line even deeper with
Fish Darwin, which specialises in seeking out the bottom dwellers like giant trevally, long tail tuna and queenfish. Jump on an extreme tour for the thrill of big bounty sports fishing, and have the ocean all to yourself.
Go seriously remote, and experience a unique mix of fresh and salt water fishing when you head to Dundee Beach to join
Anglers Choice on a once-in-a-lifetime aquatic safari, where barra is on the menu once again. Not surprisingly, you won’t get sick of it.
