Merimbula Fishing Charter Recommendations

Hi everyone,

My wife and I are taking our boys on a holiday to Merimbula next April. The pair of them are fishing mad we'll be LB fishing every day - beach and estuary. II'd like to take them out on a charter, one day, from either Merimbula or Eden (or anywhere else that's recommended). Question is, who is a good charter operator to book a morning with? I'm open to suggestions. FYI, the boys routinely target gummy's, so they've got their 6-10 kg rods and 4000 sized reels with 10 kg line (we like fishing 'light'). Do I need to increase the line strength? or should we just fish with the supplied rods and reels? Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Wayne

I've never used them, but my mate has and he highly recommends them. Their reviews on the above link are excellent.

Dunno, but if you find a good one take a snap of the Nav details and send it to me ;) I'll be at that spot over new years :rofl:

I did one just recently, there were two boats doing reef charters I went on the Ratilin II, the other boat looked a bit more modern and professional though. We just went out on the reefs, fishing was slow but we caught snapper, sweep, baracoutta, rock cod, flathead and a few other weird species that we threw back. Depends on what time of year you go but in the spring you will see humback whales flopping around on the surface like fur seals, the beasts are everywhere.

I’d check out the fishing carters Facebook pages to see what they are catching, but rathlin II seems to always get a mixed bag of fish and they have been getting gummies lately.check em out on there Facebook page https://m.facebook.com/Rathlinllcharters/
