If you want to come out on Kingfisher, please find enough friends to make it worthwhile, then book the whole boat. The prices for various trip options are listed below. For a firm booking, we need your contact name, 24 hour phone number and credit card details as security. The credit card will not be charged before the trip unless you cancel and we can't get a replacement charter or you don't turn up at the wharf. If that happens, there is a $400 cancellation fee. Payment is due on boarding the boat and can be cash, credit card or company cheque. Please look up the booking calendar to find a suitable day. There is always a long waiting list for weekends, so, if you need a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, please book early. If your group can get together during the week, we can usually arrange a weekday charter on short notice. The departure and set down times shown below relate to pick up from the Balmain/Darling Harbour/Lavender Bay area. Please let us know if you would like to arrange different times/places. We don't have gift vouchers for individuals but a gift certificate for a full charter is available and the recipient/s can then arrange the first available date. Reef and bottom fishing - Morning trip Available 7 days a week, all seasons - this is the most popular trip, suitable for experienced anglers as well as first timers, social and corporate groups, birthdays, etc. People relax, do some fishing and usually catch a feed of fine table fish. We fish 5 to 10 kM offshore, over a selection of the productive reefs and fish feeding grounds within easy reach of Sydney. Depending on conditions, 12-14 people can fish at the same time. In most social groups this works out well, because several people are happy to relax, socialise, take photos and take turns fishing. - If you are all die-hard fishos, however, we suggest limiting your numbers.

On the way we troll a spread of lures for light tackle gamefish. Fishing these spots, however, is not always possible, because it depends on the ocean current - if the current is too strong we can't fish.
