Fishing, Sharks, Crocodiles and the rest!! From moment one Rory was helpful and insightful. Picked us up from our hotel with boat in tow. Spent the first 20 minutes showing us crocodile hot spots. From there we were immediately onto some queen fish and GT. the action was non stop, Rory was very insightful. We managed a full boat of fish, lost a few to the sharks which added some extra excitement as we seen bull sharks come right up to the surface! Rory supplied food and drinks and plenty of conversation! Beautiful scenes from sunny tropical islands and mangroves. I’m more experienced but my dad is a novice which didn’t make the slightest difference, Rory taught us both the same on how to use the tackle needed and got us on the fish. I’ll be booking on again next time I’m in cairns as a must!

Came to cairns during rain season, booked a full day until Rory advised me to just take a 1/2 day due to the rain. We had an amazing 1/2 day landing 3 beautiful fish and missed a few more. Caught a large barramundi which was our goal for the day! Captain Rory was knowledgeable and persistent on changing bait until we caught fish. Great trip would recommend him to anyone!

Fishing with Rory was a blast! This guy knows his stuff. First off, he’s super chill and easy to talk to, making the whole experience laid-back and enjoyable.

Rory didn’t sugarcoat anything – he knew the fishing was going to be tough that day, but he managed our expectations like a pro. His local knowledge was like having a secret weapon – he took us to all the right spots and managed to catch my missus her first salt water fish and backed it up with a second. Even though I didn’t catch any myself, as a keen cod angler, we were stoked to see crocs, and get tips on the local wonders that are must-see.

Plus, Rory was totally prepared for anything that came our way. Gear, snacks, you name it – he had it covered. And the best part? He’s just a good bloke, plain and simple. He persisted and worked hard to try and get me a fish but I was happy as just spending the day in the boat.

If you want a fun day on the water with a top-notch guide, Rory’s your guy. Highly recommended and keen to book again!

I had an excellent morning, Rory was an excellent guide and saw a saltwater Croc close up!
I didn’t catch anything but that was my fault for getting over excited and not listening to Rory’s advice properly.

Would definitely recommend

I highly recommend Rory’s Tropical Sportfisher outfit. Rory is friendly and goes the extra mile to get the angler into the right situation to give them the best opportunity at securing the fish of a lifetime.
