    Guided Trip

    G,day all. Planning on doing a Guided Trip up North next year. Would mainly like to concentrate on light sportfishing such as chucking plastics, lures etc at Pelagics.

    Any recommendations for an outfitter would be much appreciated. Good, bad experiences?

    Thanks
    Matt

    Has to be one in every group. Was asking for people experience from here but hey, thanks for the free Google lesson.

    What time of year?

    My pick would be to hit Weipa in May - the bait balls should be out the front by then and you will have a ball pulling Pelagics off them and if you get sick of that (or the weather doesn't play ball) there's plenty of other options to get a hold of a lot of different fish. Jigging the leads, chasing Barra, fingermark etc).

    couple of guides up there to choose from - though have never used any of them myself. If Fish is still operating you wouldn't go wrong with him though!

    Thanks mate. Actually Spoke to The operators of the Charters out of Tackle World Weipa today. Quoted around $2700 for 5 days fishing, accommodation, food etc not including flights. This was for October which they said would be a good time as well. Unfortunately May wont be an option.
