Offshore V's Deep Sea Charters.. which is Better ??

Both charters use very similar rods, reels, line classes, and baits, and both are deep sea fishing trips targeting the same offshore species in the open ocean with Sydney’s leading offshore fishing charter. The main difference is how far we can travel — the shorter 4 to 5-hour charters naturally limit travel distance compared to the 6.5-hour trips, which allows for more time to reach wider grounds and fish longer. Both charters consistently catch plenty of quality fish, but if you’re curious about the difference… maybe try both and see for yourself.

How Many people can go on Fishing Charter

All SHARED Deep sea charters are limited to a maximum of 15 passengers, and for PRIVATE Deep sea, Offshore, and Mahi Mahi charters you can come alone or bring a group of friends. You’ll need to choose a boat that suits your group size, as each boat has its own maximum capacity: ReelFisher (max 8), Nitro (max 10), BlueCat (max 15).

Which Boat to Choose

All boats used across our range of Sydney fishing charters are modern, clean, and safe, with the main difference being the size of each boat and its passenger capacity. Start by working out how many guests you have, then choose the boat that best suits your adventure -> [CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO]
