  • Half-day charters focus on the rich inshore waters, exploring Bay Islands, sand flats, and reef systems teeming with life.

Whether you're chasing a bucket-list catch or just want a relaxing day out, we’ve got the perfect fishing experience for you.

Breaksea - Fraser Island

Breaksea Spit at Fraser Island offers an unforgettable topwater fishing experience in a remote, largely untouched paradise. Far from the crowds, these pristine waters are alive with explosive surface strikes as giant trevally and Spanish mackerel hunt bait just beneath the surface. Every cast brings the chance to experience the raw fight and heart-pounding thrill of these powerful fish, testing both skill and gear to the limit. Home to some of the largest giant trevally in the country, this unspoilt stretch of water provides not just incredible fishing, but a sense of peace and adventure that only a truly wild location can offer. Being out here, surrounded by untouched nature and crystal-clear waters, feels like paradise — a place where every moment on the water is pure excitement, and every fish caught becomes a memory to last a lifetime.

Bonito 660 – Built for Serious Offshore Fishing

The Bonito 660 is the latest evolution in a legendary line of high-performance offshore racing and fishing boats. Renowned for its incredibly soft ride, the 660 is built to handle serious offshore conditions with comfort and confidence.

With a sharp 53-degree deadrise at the bow and 25 degrees at the transom, it cuts through chop with ease—making it one of the smoothest rides in its class. A massive 350L fuel tank gives you the range to go further, while serious fishing features like through-hull transducers, underfloor kill tanks, casting deck, bait tanks, bait boards, deck wash, side pockets, and a T-top ensure you’re always ready to chase the next big one.

Whether you're heading wide or fishing the flats, the Bonito 660 delivers performance, practicality, and purpose-built design—offshore fishing at its best.
