What a Fly Fishing Vacation in Australia Would Be Like
You Will Have a Local Guide
You will be traveling with a local Australian fly fishing guide, one who knows what's biting and where. And more importantly, how to catch those illusive fish on your must catch list. They will be your host for the duration of your stay, unless you add extra days to your vacation of course.
Depending on whether you do a custom private fishing trip or one with a group where you spend time onboard the mothership, you will be well supported.
Group Trips Onboard a Charter
If you choose to fly fish up North, for example, there are options for a group trip on board a mothership where you are provided with food, accommodation and endless fishing adventure with your guide and host. The ships are beautifully fitted out for comfort. The food is fresh Australian cuisine. This is only one example of the different fly fishing packages on offer.
An Example Five Day Trip Itinerary for Up North

- In the afternoon, head out on a half-day fly fishing charter to get acquainted with the local waters and try your hand at catching some fish.

- Your guide will take you to some of the best spots in the area and teach you the techniques you need to be successful.
Day 3:
