THE BEST BLUEWATER SPORT FISHING ON THE PLANET
Hi Guys,
I thought some of the members and guests may be interested in an upcoming trip I'm going on in November. I've done three of these trips previously, and it is truly mind blowing. If you're intersted, follow the links to the websites. We have 10 spots to fill.....Normally, it's nearly immpossible to get on one of these trips, they're booked out well in advance. I don't think they will last long.
There are a chain of reefs located off the Australian/Queensland Coast known as the Coral Sea Island Territories. This chain of reefs is one of the most remote and inaccessible systems of reefs in the world. Of the 16 reefs in the system, the closest to land is 180nm, the furtherest out is 380nm.
A truly wild place, one of the last frontiers for hardcore sportfishing on earth.
Multiple hook-ups on tackle destroying gamefish are common, as are incredible wipeouts that will leave you stunned.
24-37kg stand up and jigging gear is normal, with 15kg outfits being very sporting. The fish here either get big or get eaten.
Species targeted at reefs such as Saumarez, Wreck, Kenn and Fredericks include Black Marlin(upto 500kg), Sailfish(30-100kg),Yellowfin Tuna(10-80kg), Dogtooth Tuna(+100kg), Giant Trevally(+70kg), Wahoo(+50kg), Mahi Mahi, Jobfish, Huge Oceanic Coral Trout and many more.
The Mothership
KANIMBLA is a 25m/82ft Aluminium ship whose catamaran design provides maximum stability at sea. Her wide beam and 3 levels afford a spacious living area and plenty of deck space for fishing and diving activities.
All living areas are fully air-conditioned.
Dine and relax in our Saloon which is equipped with TV, DVD, Video and Sound System.
To further enhance your fishing experience we carry a fleet of 6 Webster Twin Fisher dinghies which allow you to access reef environments.
The Twin Fishers are also of a catamaran design offering space and stability. Each dinghy has a 25hp outboard, depth sounder, safety gear and a UHF radio
If you have always dreamt of that ultimate gamefishing trip, and thought it was only for the rich and famous, dream no longer.

Yep, it's very well priced.
Yep, it's very well priced. 15 or 16 anglers will go on the trip. No tackle is supplied(bring your own), and there is a bar tab for beer and softdrinks. All meals are catered for. These guys are one of the best operators around and have heaps of return clients...it's going to be huge. Coral sea carnage

Awesome
If I hadn't just been to Exmouth and spent a heap I would be signed up just like that. Any chance you could post a photo or two of some monsters you get out there, just for added incentive? ;) Sounds like an awesome trip and well priced too.

The trips Kanimbla does are
The trips Kanimbla does are really aimed at anglers who have a relatively high level of experience. Whilst the crew are fantastic and very professional, the focus is on the clients using their own skill to get onto the fish. The websters are self driven, and you get to troll, jig, snorkel, spearfish...pretty much where ever you like. Frankly speaking, it's pretty hard to miss out in a place that, and following basic bluewater fishing techniques will get you stretched. This trip is planned as a reef trilogy visiting Wreck, Fredericks and Kenn reefs over 10 days...There are so many options available. One minute you can be throwing poppers around coral flats, and ten minutes later be trolling marlin lures in 1000m of water off the drop offs.
I'm currently building a giant tackle mound to sacrifice to my piscatorial challenges
