Good Morning All
With NOVEMBER upon us and our TUNA SEASON in FULL SWING our FISHING and PELAGIC CHARTERS are gaining momentum.
Our Pelagic birding charters took a beating this month due to adverse weather conditions, but we did manage 2 trips with again great results. These are set to continue through till 2026 where we already have 40 trips booked for next year (weather permitting).
On the Fishing front very good catches of a good class LONGFIN and a lot of YOUNGER YELLOWFINS with a few bigger fish in between and this will only improve if my intel from others (commercials) is correct. This will also continue into next year or when the water becomes too WARM.
This hopefully in time for our very own TUCKERS TACKLE TUNA DERBY from 13th till 19th of NOVEMBER 2025.
Theres been a good sign of YELLOWTAIL typical of this time of year so great for your HALF DAY GAME FISHING charters.
We still don’t know what the dates are for our CRAYFISH SEASON but will advise as soon as we know.
We do have a very full order book, remembering that the WEATHER always has the final say so always allow a little flexibility when booking.
We will also be releasing some juvenile tagged TURTLES some time in DECEMBER so watch this space for possible options to come along but at a cost all in the name of conservation.
Enjoy the photo’s which is a testament to our success.
