Fozie was brilliant on the day providing great training to the beginners and ensured he gave us the bet opportunity to catch Snapper and Cod. Awesome understanding of the waterways and great service, highly recommended.
Rob dos Remedios – 16th August 2018
Highly recommend, Rob was a fantastic guide & they don’t overload the boat with people so it was a great comfortable day fishing.

Thanks for a great day out today Fozie. We will be back in snapper season. Paul & Sam Hunter.
Hugh Mountford – 31st October & 1st November 2019
Went out with Fozie 31 October, caught plenty, well looked after and a good day’s fishing all round. Excellent guide to the local fishing area, we were well looked after and well advised. Worth doing!
WHAT TO BRING
All you need is loose comfortable clothing, a jumper / raincoat depending on the day. Sunscreen and a hat and any food you may like to nibble on. A Great attitude is always welcome for your fishing adventure.
Please note that we follow the safety rule of 2m swell, and or 20 knot winds. We will cancel the charter for everyone’s safety if these conditions are reached.
No Alcohol is permitted onboard.
Sea sickness is a chance to those who don’t go to sea very often. We recommend you take a seasick tablet 1 hour before boarding the boat and another before we leave port. Various brands of tablets and old wive’s tales on the prevention of seasickness are out there, we find the use of Kwells to be the most consistent performer. I found the first 30 years the hardest to get over seasickness, but it gets considerably easier after that.
We DO NOT CLEAN YOUR CATCH; we feel this is part of the fishing adventure experience. We will ice down the fish caught and distribute them to you upon arrival back at port. Bring a suitable esky to take home your fish as well as a fish scaler / knife to clean your catch. There are excellent fish cleaning facilities adjacent to the Ballina Marina.
Pick up for your next Fozie’s Adventure is at the Boat Harbour at the end of Boat Harbour Road, West Ballina
