ESTUARY FISHING-GREAT TIME ESTUARY FISHING WITH A DIVERSITY OF FISH
By Fish Tales Charters
17 Dec 2014
GREAT TIME ESTUARY FISHING WITH A DIVERSITY OF FISHDarryl showed the five of us a great morning fishing in the estuaries lined with mangroves along the edges of the shoreline. The trip started off with Darryl catching some bait fish from the estuary area. We caught a variety of fish from a beautiful red mangrove jack, a spotted estuary cod, a couple of jungle perch, and a small flounder. I was very surprised with the diversity of fish caught as the biodiversity is quite amazing in this area. Once these fish take the bait, they really pull down the pole with some force and won't let go; you shouldn't bother with a little nibble because if they're only nibbling, you can just sit back and wait. Even though it had rained during the latter half of the outing, we still had a spectacular time and we did not let the rain take away from our Cairns fishing experience. Their prices were very competitive with respect to other charter boats we were considering, and we felt that Fish Tales Charters drove out to farther areas of the estuary to find the optimal fishing spots! They could have stayed closer to our departure point to save on fuel, but they went the extra mile (literally) to try areas where they've had prior success. If we had more time, we would have definitely considered doing a full day.If you want to do a little fish homework before you go, make sure to check out their fish calendar on their website to see what times of the year are best for catching certain types of fish if you're looking to go for a certain species.
