Ready to chase trevally, tuna and queenfish in Hervey Bay's fish-rich waters? **Half-day and full-day guided sports fishing across Hervey Bay, the Great Sandy Straits and K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) — book an intimate charter with a knowledgeable local guide and spend more time with lines in the water.** Fraser Guided Fishing puts you in the action with genuine local knowledge and a well-equipped, purpose-built sports fishing vessel. Book a half day (4 hours minimum) to work the close-by flats of the Sandy Straits, or go all-in with a full day (8 hours minimum) to cover more ground — tuna and marlin missions require the full day. Quality tackle is available on a replace-if-lost basis, or bring your own. Water and light snacks are included on all trips, with lunch also provided on full-day charters. Flights to Hervey Bay Airport (HVB) depart regularly from Brisbane and Sydney, just minutes from the departure point. [1][4][9][11] Why choose Fraser Guided Fishing on the Fraser Coast? Enjoy personalised guiding from a true local, targeting a huge variety of sports fish across estuary and inshore blue-water grounds. These waterways are unique for their overlap of tropical and cooler-water species — it's possible to land coral trout and snapper in the morning, then switch tactics for a hard-running queenfish before the day is done. [2][5] What charter options can you book? Pick a Half Day Guided Charter (4 hours minimum) for a time-smart session on the Sandy Straits flats — ideal for juniors and novice fishos. Choose a Full Day Guided Charter (8 hours minimum) to explore multiple areas and species; it's the only option for tuna or marlin due to distances covered. Inclusions vary by duration. [9][11] Which fishing grounds will you explore? You'll fish the bountiful waters of Hervey Bay and the Great Sandy Straits, with options around K'gari's coastline. Expect a mix of flats, estuary and inshore blue-water sessions tailored to conditions and your goals, guided by intimate local knowledge to maximise time on the bite. [1][2][4][11] What might you catch on a charter? Target trevally, tuna, mackerel, queenfish, mangrove jack and flathead, with opportunities for marlin and seasonal snapper. Freshwater impoundment sessions can include barra, saratoga and bass. Your guide will advise what's firing and fine-tune techniques for the day's conditions. [6][10][11] Who's at the helm? Your guide, Tri Ton, grew up obsessed with sports fishing and spent years working in the tackle industry around Brisbane before trading city life for the waterways of the Fraser Coast. Now he channels that experience into hands-on guiding, helping keen anglers connect with the fish of their dreams.
