My Family and I have just returned back from our Holiday at Hamilton Island.

During our stay on Hamilton we charted Sea Fever Sports Fishing for an overnight charter last Thursday and Friday they operate out of Airlie Beach there boat Reel Work is a 32 foot game boat.

Target species Giant Trevally on surface lures.

With some blue water trolling between spots.

All equipment was supplied by charter which included.

Custom Aussie Built 7'8 PE10 Popping Rods.

Shimano 1800 SW Stella's.

Lures used where Halco Roster Poppers with upgraded terminal tackle.

Various brands of stick baits where taken but the poppers where the stand out.

Not having to lug rod tubes and copious amounts of tackle was a nice change.

Service quality and put you n the spot from our skipper Ash was ten out of ten very professional service.

On the Thursday we were picked up at 0600 from the main ferry terminal on the Island.

We commenced our two and half hour voyage out to Hook and Hardy Reef.

Breathtaking spot taking in the Islands with the family as we headed out to the reef.

High Lights of the Trip.

My oldest Daughter catching her first GT and the largest Mackeral for the trip.

Youngest Daughter also catching her first Mac and Shark and various other species having the whole family involved and having fun for the two days.

Snorkelling late afternoon on the reef with family and then moving around to our anchorage point and Ash saying just have a cast into that pressure spot on the reef which was holding bait third bloop from the popper and ambushed by an XL Black GT on sunset.

Twenty One GT where caught and released over the two days not including missed hook ups and terminal tackle and one lure being punctured by the teeth on a large GT all the way through to the rattle.

The conditions where perfect for the visual display from these fish and how hard they strike loved it hope you enjoy the pictures.
