Cairns Reef Fishing
The huge variety of fish species inhabiting the Great Barrier Reef is astounding. The close proximity of the Reef to Cairns itself makes it a fisherman's dream destination. With these factors in mind, we customised our Cairns Reef fishing charters to suit.
Our locally built "Reef Runner 1" offers a fast and comfortable ride to inshore blue water reefs and wrecks. We use the latest high quality Shimano & Penn Reef Fishing outfits for an array of light tackle sports fishing including trolling, live-baiting, bottom fishing and high speed jigging. We target a huge range of species including various Mackerel and Trevally species, Nannygai, Coral Trout, Red Emperor and Tuna.
The boat features full-shade canopy, padded seating, huge esky, toilet, stereo, killtanks, live-bait tanks and the latest electronic equipment. Your full-day Cairns Reef Fishing tour includes: morning tea, lunch, reef tax and all bait and tackle. For maximum enjoyment and personalised service, we limit the number of passengers on your Cairns Fishing tour to six, with two crew at all times on hand for reef fishing.
