Gone Fishing Cairns 

The day was great and well organised. Plenty of space on the boat and a chiller full of ice to keep drinks and food cold. Captain rotated between 3 fishing spots which were all great. We caught a 70cm Barra, and a few other fish. Great day and the captain made a great effort to keep the chat up and environment positive. Highly recommend for the price

Jacob was a fantastic skipper and took us to some of his favourite fishing spots. Everyone on the boat was able to catch a fish my Barramundi was the highlight of the trip. 5 different types of fish were caught even a rare scalloped head hammer head shark. I would highly recommend this fishing charter.

We caught a stack of green backs for live bait in a couple of casts with the net, then pushed down the estuary and anchored on a small artificial reef which we pulled 2 keeper fingermarks and a couple of unders, losing a few more to bad hook ups. We then went to over 10 more rocks wrecks and structures and didnt find another fish holding on them. Pulling up to another wreck we lost a few more baits without a hook up and decided to go and find a croc for the kids on board who were fasinated. Jacob is a passionate guide and put us on the best spots all morning, great knowledge and sounder skills. Highly recommend his charter.

I would certainly recommend booking a trip with Jacob. He put us on the fish all day and was very knowledgeable and happy to share with us. He was easy to talk to and maximised the time we were fishing for the entire time. We left with fish and great stories.

The morning started early with an amazing weather forecast for the day ahead. Met up with Captain Jacob at the marina and headed out. He is a very knowledgeable person and knew all the best spots. We had a few good catches & overall an awesome day. Would highly recommend his services to anyone looking or planning a day out fishing especially with his reasonable pricing👌

What makes my trip so wonderful: 1. Captain Jacob is nice and capable to handle any situation. 2. There are so many different species here and they are soooo big! 3. The boat is quick and safe. 4. The view is beautiful. 5. Other anglers are friendly and having good sense of humor. 6. It only costs you $120 per person. 7. You catch fish! You catch fish! You catch fish!

Jacob knows the area really well… Not just the fishing spots, but the croc sites, the local birdlife and animals, other boats, Cairns life and stories. A great half-day out for us.

Jacob was knowledgeable and fantastic in helping the guests get the most out of the trip. Boat was clean and well equipped. Highly recommend the trip to young and old. Happy fishing.

What a magnificent trip. The experience was second to none. Jacob made the experience one to never forget. Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get out and catch some decent fish. His knowledge of the area was great. Also offering us to take home our catch and for it to be prepared and cooked by local restaurants. Thank you! 🙌🐠

Personally, I couldn't have asked for a better day with the good company of Jacob. He made my Sons trip very memorable and really helped build his confidence in practical ways. Oh yeah and we experienced crocodiles, birds, scurvy sea scoundrel and caught a diverse range of decent fish, one being a boat record breaking Mangrove Jack :) Dinner that night was definitely sorted. Thanks again Jacob and Gone Fishing Charters.
