What an excellent charter, Shannon was very pleasant and knowledgeable guide, his knowledge of the river was excellent, he put us on the spot where the fish were, he had excellent gear, and the boat was great, he managed to get me on board even though I am mobility impaired. The first Barra I caught was a 60cm Barra, then caught an undersized Barra which was returned to the water, then just 50 metres from the boat ramp I caught a 95cm Barra, after a fight the fish was landed, measured, photographed, and also returned to the water to fight another day. Shannon supplied water and soft drinks. Thank you Shannon for a great trip.

My wife and I had a great time fishing last Friday morning. Mick our guide was excellent to deal with. His knowledge and coaching were top notch and his good natured banter made it even more fun. We both caught good size Barramundi and had the chef at Kakadu Lodge cook it up for us. I highly recommend this to novice and experienced fishers.

Had a fantastic day out on the beautiful east alligator river with our guide Trevor. Trevor was very knowledgeable and a great bloke to spend a day out with. Caught about a dozen fish between 2 of us with three above legal size (largest 74cm). The area is a spectacular place to spend a day and I will definitely be back again for a longer charter. I wasn’t overly impressed with Kakadu until I went on this charter and now I can’t wait to get back.

Great experience, Michael was very helpful. Unfortunately spent half a day with only 1 catch and that was from someone else in the group. No one else had any bites 👎 disappointing. Caught about 6 the day beforehand at ‘Home Billabong’ , should have stopped at that and saved the $$$$

Wow what an experience. Guide Trevor is a superstar - great angler and knows where to find fish and how to catch them. Shannon (owner) is so easy to deal with and thorough. I did a half day trip and eventually pulled my line in to take a break from “catching”. Highly recommended.

Trevor was nothing short of professional during our half day charter on the East Alligator River. He tried a variety of methods and different lures during the hours on board his tidy and well-equipped boat. Everyone on board caught some barra, and almost every minute on the river was spent with lines in the water, the way a charter should be. Would definitely recommend.

Trev was awesome - a local with so much experience and stories. Truly a magical experience from incredible rock art, fantastic fishing and sunset to the croc spotting and tips for the area. Would do again 100%!

Thank you so much for this beautiful time on the East Alligator River! We caught and released some three barramundis that were too small to keep, later one perfectly for dinner! And the wildlife on the river is amazing! Crocodiles, kites, and also paintings at the riverbank-rocks! Awesome!!

Great morning fishing experience. Managed to land a 95cm Barra and others. Shannon, the owner of the business, is a top bloke and knowledgeable guide who coaches well on the correct tech. The Beautifully set up boat. Highly recommend the experience.
