Here in North Queensland, we are spoilt with countless amazing fishing holes, but many of them you cannot simply access by car.

However, with Townsville Helicopters that's not a worry! We can turn an average fishing day into an experience to remember forever. Whether you are an experienced angler or are yet to land your first big barra, we can ensure that your fishing adventure is one for the books.

There are many different local fishing places we could take you to around the area. This Barramundi season, however, we've picked out a few special places for the ultimate experience. We have exclusive access to a private spot where you are almost guaranteed of a big catch (this pristine spot is catch and release only). 

Tours depart from Townsville, but if you are located south of the city, we can also pick you up from Ayr Airport for an extra $150 per person (this option appears as an optional extra once you click 'book now').

We provide all the necessary fishing gear and are proud to partner with Irukandji Tackle to offer you a selection of high-quality lures, so you can fish without any worries. However, if you prefer to bring your own, feel free to do so (just ensure they are collapsible).

If you want something more customised, please give us a call - anything is possible. To enquire please contact the office on (07) 4772 4998.

Note: Prime Barra fishing is in the warmer months and directly after the wet season, and the fish can be a little slower to bite in winter. For up to date fishing reports, please follow our Facebook page.
