LOCATION & SPECIES
Our Torres Strait Expeditions are full of untouched locations, specifically selected because of the huge range of species and fishing opportunities they provide.
There are a large number of bommies, reefs and islands within the target zone for this trip and yet we only visit these reefs on a total of four trips per year to ensure they remain pristine. Each charter will target locations based on the prime time for weather and fishing, so you can be sure of mind-blowing fishing action as well as a unique experience.
You will target the likes of Yellowfin Tuna, Red Emperor, Maori Wrasse, Dogtooth Tuna, Giant Trevally, Jobfish and Nannygai and a host of other saltwater sport fish in extremely remote waters very rarely fished. Barramundi, Jewfish, Mangrove Jack, Fingermark and Queenfish are amongst our coastal/estuarine species found in this region.
