Marlin Fishing off South East Australia

Wherever the bite is on, that is where you will find TRADITION.

The waters offshore of the Gold Coast, Australia's holiday destination, where I grew up marlin and bottom fishing is incredible. Great fishing is available right offshore, from small black marlin and sailfish, to striped and blue marlin further offshore.

The east coast has incredible grounds for sport fishing boats, with TRADITION being the most professional operation available in this part of the country. We can arrange all travel and accommodation for your visit.

With huge areas of canyons only 20 miles off the coast for a hundreds of miles , we have the opportunity to fish an area known for its number and quality of blue, black and striped marlin, which along with yellowfin tuna and swordfish, gives an exciting opportunity to fish for a variety of species.

The South east coastline has become the world record grounds for light tackle marlin fishing, with about every record in the last 5 years coming from these grounds. Large numbers of black, blue and striped marlin allow lots of opportunities each day to fulfill your needs. There are also some animal blues in the canyons, waiting for some good 130lb tackle to be put to the test.

We can troll lures with hooks, teaser fish and pitch bait with a range of tackle , including saltwater fly, to suit your requirements. On TRADITION we typically tag and release all our billfish unless it is a record you are chasing.

Come and fish with us out of some great destinations, bring the family and enjoy one of these really special places in Australia where everyone can have a great time.
