"The guys at Fishabout have been awesome since we crossed paths in early 2012. After doing a couple of episodes with them barra fishing at Labelle Downs they've managed to organise some great destinations for the 2013 series.  They're good blokes who can provide you with a heap of advice if you're keen to do some fishing travel. This year they've got us venturing throughout the Pacific, with still plenty of local hotspots to look forward to. Whether fishing overseas, chasing Barra and more in Australia or simply covering what's on offer in and around Sydney, you cant go past Fishabout."

Princess Charlotte Bay, Far North Queensland, is the jewel in Australia's fishing crown. Some of the best and most untouched coral reef, bluewater, and pristine river systems in the country can all be found here. 

The best way to access Princess Charlotte Bay is by mothership, and there is only one operation licensed to fish it, the luxury 56ft Riviera ‘Reel Chase'.

You will be transported to your mothership by R44 or R66 helicopter, flying low so you can take in the stunning scenery of Lakefield National Park, deserted beaches, rugged cliffs and stunning reef you will come across on your 90 minute ride from Port Douglas.

The fishing is absolute world class from chasing down the iconic saltwater barramundi in the Normanby or Kennedy Rivers to the plethora of reef and pelagic fish within close proximity in the surrounding bay and islands including coral trout, sea perch, giant trevally, spanish mackerel a variety of tuna species just to name a few. There are that many options available at your finger tips that the reels will keep on turning.

The wildlife of the reefs, islands, headlands and estuary systems provide a visual smorgasbord second to none. PCB is one of the last truly untouched areas left in Queensland.  This unique location provides a vast array of landscapes with the variety of wildlife an experience in itself. Sightings of local wildlife are common often spotting dolphins, whales, turtles, dugong as well as some larger than life sharks and salt water crocodiles.

Fishabout is pleased to now offer remote fishing trips to Endyalgout Island, one of the best fishing locations in Australia.  (Nestled on the south east of the Coburg Penninsula).
