Barramundi Charters
Based on local knowledge of the areas that produce the best fishing, Barramundi Charters fishing destinations can vary between rivers and billabongs depending on the time of the year.
Barramundi Fishing in the Territory has two specific times of the year when the fish are biting the most – Our “Build Up Barra Fishing” is normally from mid-August to end of November and our Wet Season “Run Off Barra Fishing” is from beginning of March through until May.

Barramundi 2–5-day Fishing Charters
We can provide Barramundi 2–5-day Fishing Trips to Daly River or Shady Camp and will assist you with which river to target based on the time of the year you want to book. I normally target Shady Camp (Mary River) in our build up and the Daly River in our runoff prior to the big fishing competitions.
We can arrange accommodation, meals, drinks etc. prior to your arrival and assist with choosing the best location based on the time of the year you’re looking at.
We supply quality fishing rods (bait casters & eggbeaters), reels, tackle & lures based on a replacement or repair cost if damaged or lost overboard.
Gerard will coach/teach you on how & where to cast, barra fishing techniques including lure placement & retrieval techniques to land that Barramundi of a lifetime right up to netting your fish to get it into the boat.
