What our clients have to say…
Kate (Tim) Gormley – 14th September 2020
What a great days fishing all round. I’ve been on plenty of charters that you jump off thinking I won’t be returning but definitely the opposite with Fozies, over a hundred fish caught with only 4 people fishing, great variety, Pearlies, Snapper, Tuskfish, Moses perch, Teraglin, Flathead, Pig fish and some cracking sized fish amongst…

Have fished with Fozie several times. always catch lots of fish and have a great day. Rob is very professional and I highly recommend fishing with Fozie.
Michael Folkes – 14th August 2020
I’m a fishing guide but kept it quite. These guys are the people that fishing guides go out with to learn. Rob and Di are without trying the most lovely people and even if they were horrible I would still go fishing with them because Robs experience and classic vessel are just so rare. BEST…
Adam Rosenberg – 27th February 2020
Fozie took my dad and I out reef fishing for the morning – amazing experience. We caught tons of fish and had a great time. Fozie is an excellent captain and really knows his stuff. Highly recommended!
Dan Gibson – 26th December 2018
Caught loads of good fish, awesome day out, cheers Fozie
Kirsty Elmslie – 2nd January 2020
Very highly recommended – the highlight of our holiday. Fozie was a fantastic host – he has the perfect mix of professionalism, knowledge (happily shared) and that all important banter, and he made sure we all caught HEAPS of fish. Can’t wait for the next trip.
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.
Alcohol is permitted BYO; we ask that you drink responsibly and not put yourself and others on the boat in any danger.
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 both Ballina and Evans Head Marinas.
Pick up for your next Fozie’s Adventure is at the Boat Harbour at the end of Boat Harbour Road, West Ballina
