About

This trip is ideal for experienced anglers looking to spend a full day fishing, with an opportunity for bigger fish and a wider range of species. Plenty of time for drift, reef and deep water fishing, and perhaps even a wreck. Occasionally our 8 hour trips are specific tope trips, check the availability heading for confirmation.

Optional rod hire is available if needed, and includes basic bait. We would expect passengers on tope trips to have their own rods and tackle, but bait can be arranged at cost.
