Had one of the best repuatations last year for the sambo jigging, highest number put on the boat hands down.

 

its depending on getting through the sharks aswell this year early on you might be able to avoid them but later on it gets to messy

plus i think the season starts nov? 

 

i worked the whole season 5-6days a week last year

Bluejuice? Seriously ...

I'd try and get some independent feedback on Bluejuice, it may not be quite so positive.

Highest number of punters on board? I'd believe that.

Sambos and Perth? I'd go Al Bevan from Shikari: 0412131958.

think u might find its mills with the highest number of punters on board.

 

blue juice have a max of 8 fishing at once on the jigging but take up on avg 12-14  due to running costs of the boats.

 

Shikari are a very good charter aswell.

 

no charter company has raving reviews because its not like heading out in your own run about.

 

id prefer that any day but from hillaries, Bj was the most sucessful out of the charters there.

Most sucessful how? Thumbs up

Most sucessful how?

 

Thumbs up for Saltwater Charters though. Never more than 6-8 fishing, plus consistently better fish instead of some dumb boats who think all you have to do is go over where the sounder turns red. All properly released too with release weights/deck wash/etc. All floating sambos picked up (whichever boat they came from...). Good food too.

saltwater charters is boss
last year when the sambos went jig shy, they  were the only charter to send down live baits amd thus were the only charter raising any sambos,
didnt sit on shark infested spots and barges all day,
not naming any names, but one charter out off hillarys last year, sat on the northern barge all day and we must have had 80 sambos sharked, with no intention of leaving that spot and trying another.

Guys lets not start slagging

Wed, 2011-08-17 17:23

Guys lets not start slagging charters..... Each one has its positve and negs...remember its their job and they need to make an income (in terms of people on the boat) bad releasing etc etc well if that happen is just poor work ethic.

 

Never been on blue juice, so cant comment, by shikari when i was a young fellah put us on the fish!

you mean craig'o and ryan from saltwater, and release weights are used and always available to hand.

Its why i enjoied the jigging so much catch and release if your going to release it make sure its got the best chance possible.

the sharks where hectic last year there was alot of rumor about calling off sambo jiggin on some charters and mills stopped early last year too.

 

live baits where king last year sambos was smashing herring liveys!
