What our clients have to say…

Tracey Ryan – 12th July 2019

Great day out fishing with an excellent skipper who knew how to look after his customers we really enjoyed our experience with Fozies Fishing Adventures. Caught lots of fish and added bonus saw lots of whales up close. will tell others when around Ballina come fishing with Fozie’s.

Terry Stuart – 24th October 2019

Just had our first trip with Fozies and it will not be our last.  Had a great day, met new people and caught fish.  Fozie (Rob) does a fantastic job as skipper, deck hand, flight attendant and all round good guy, nothings too much trouble for him.  If there’s no bites then he quickly moves…

Alan Bertacco

Fozie clearly knows his stuff. A really good fella who took us to the spots he knows will get you results. The sea was a bit lumpy when we went out but he kept us busy with a great catch at the end of the morning, and a great fresh fish feed for all that…

Ally Roberston – 11th July 2020

Had an amazing time out fishing with Fozie. Our party caught over 100 fish keeping 50+! Being surrounded with whales and dolphins an added bonus!! Great morning had by all!

Craig Wilcox – 20th April 2021

FANTASTIC….What else can I say Fozie knows his stuff. His knowledge of the different reefs in the area and those species that inhabit said reefs is great. Myself and my partner went about 3 weeks after the flood so a lot of dirty water was washing out of the system. He did warn us that…

Jody & William – 14th July 2018

Fantastic day of fishing with a an awesome host (Fozie) who shared some great tips & had us pulling in fish all day. Would thoroughly recommend & we’ll be back again.Jody, William & fellow fishing partners.

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
