Gold Coast Shark Fishing Charters

Gold coast shark fishing charters are the Gold Coasts leading provider of shark fishing charters and tours. Feel the power a 300kg man eater takes the bait, prepare for hours of brutal combat as we do battle with some of the biggest sharks Australia has to offer.

We actively target and catch a variety of species of sharks including Bronze whaler sharks, Tiger sharks, Hammerhead sharks, Mako sharks, Bull sharks and more.

Our experienced owner operators will blast you out to the local reefs on board our purpose built plate aluminium vessels “Alibi and Sherwood’. Once anchored on the reef you will be briefed on the use of the equipment, we will explain how the tackle works, and adjust harnesses and gimbal belts to suit individual anglers. Pre prepared baits (usually whole mackerel tuna or large tuna fillets) will then be set, we will then begin chumming/burleying the water to attract the sharks to the baits.

Experience the adrenaline rush as the reel screams and the shark makes a run for it. once the hook is set we will harness you up and the battle begins, you choose to go it alone or share the rod between the group, our Gold Coast shark fishing charters are a great team building exercise and are excellent for corporate and sporting groups alike.

Being “mad keen” fisherman we are up to date with all the latest fishing techniques and methods. In addition to our Australian deep sea/reef fishing trips, we can organize deepwater jigging for kingfish, Amberjack and Sampson fish. Snapper fishing trips using mainly “floatlines” which consist of super sharp gang hooks with a very light sinker lowered slowly to the reef. This is a highly effective method used to capture the big “Nobby” Snapper.

Gold coast Game fishing charters targeting Black marlin, Striped marlin, Blue marlin, Yellowfin tuna, Sailfish, Wahoo and Dolphin fish can be easily arranged. Big Sharks are strong and powerful with the battle sometimes measured in hours rather than minutes, Not for the feint hearted, great for groups where the rod gets “passed around” and everyone shares in the fun, alternatively we can harness you up, and you can go it alone and try to land the beast yourself, its entirely up to you. Gold coast Shark fishing charters are a great team building exercise, excellent for Bucks days, corporate groups, birthday parties etc, or anyone that wants to catch and view that big man eater up close.
