Merimbula Fishing Charters

with Fishpen Charters

 

Keen to go Fishing?
We are ready to take you.


We offer three, four or five hour fishing trips.

Our three hour fishing trips have been a huge hit with families with youngsters who would like to get their children out on the water (some for the first time in their lives). This is also a great trip for those a bit short on time or just want a quick and easy fishing trip.

‘Our four hour fishing trips provide the perfect combination of time on the water while maximising our chances of getting a nice feed of fish.

Due to the popularity of our three and four hour trips our five hour fishing trips are now reserved for private charter only. If you have a group and would like a longer trip get in touch by phone or email and we will get it organised for you.

Fishpen Charters has been operating for the last 30 years from Mitchies Jetty in Merimbula specialising in reef and bottom fishing.

 
 

Our new boat launched November 2020

It’s unbelievably great

 After close to 30 years of loyal and reliable service from our original vessel, Broadbill, it was time for an upgrade.

The design brief was simple enough, a user friendly, full walk around cabin design that is both great as a fishing platform and for whale and dolphin watching. Add to that list, it needed to be fast with a shallow draft to navigate our shallow bar.

John Pontifex from Plate Alloy Australia was enlisted to design our boat, Andrew Gatt to build it and Merimbula Mowers and Marine to fit it out.

The result is spectacular. We couldn’t be happier.

At 11m in length, a 3.7m beam and powered by twin 300hp Yamaha engines it provides a magnificent fishing platform. She gets us to our destination faster than ever before which allows us to go further afield in the same time frame.

We have a toilet and hand washing facilities on board.

We look forward to getting you out on it soon.
