Rip Charters
Sorrento | Est 1986
5 Hour Charter:
Our 5hr Charter is our most popular trip and is suitable for beginners through to experienced anglers. In season possible target species include Snapper, Gummy Shark, King George Whiting, Australian Salmon, Trevally, Sweep, Flathead, Barracouta, Calamari and Reef Species. We do not target Shark on these trips.
6 Hour Charter:
The 6 hour trips will, when conditions allow give us more time to travel further down to Barwon Heads where we focus on Snapper and in season Kingfish, but also depending on the weather on the day, may target species mentioned above such as Gummy Shark, King George Whiting, Australian Salmon, Trevally, Sweep, Flathead, Calamari and Reef Species. If we find a shark hanging around the burley trail there is also a good chance we will get the shark rods out for a spin.
Depending on the season our Game/Sport fishing trips target Kingfish, Snapper, Salmon, Mako, Thresher sharks and are sometimes getting amongst School shark, Gummys and Blue Whaler, Squid and big Flathead.
All top quality rods & reels, including Penn, Ugly Sticks & Wilson Live Fibre rods on board. Bait and tackle supplied. Fish will be cleaned and bagged for your convenience, ready to cook on the BBQ.
On all our Game/Sport trips we endeavour to get out into Bass Strait, however, the weather has a big influence on our charters, and obviously we cannot control what the Weather Gods throw at us! We tend to run charters in rain or wet conditions, however, as a general rule, we do not proceed in wind conditions above 25 knots, in that case we have an alternative trip fishing in Port Phillip Bay when possible.
Individuals, groups or social clubs are all welcome. Our vessel can be hired privately for such occasions as Corporate Groups, Social Clubs, Birthday Partys, Friends Get-togethers. Catering Packages are also available on Private Charters, please enquire.
