Small groups of up to 6 passengers are catered for on live-aboard charters. Please contact us for more information.
Whatever you need to be comfortable, protected from the sun and capture memories. Think hat, sunnies, ideally long sleeved clothing and bring a camera (although nowadays phone cameras are plenty good enough). Wear whatever footwear youāre comfortable in, thongs are fine, but if you prefer to wear sneakers theyāre unlikely to get wet.
Drinks? Feel free to BYO, however we request you bring only a small esky or cooler bag to keep them cold. Alternatively, weāve got a licensed bar on board with a great range of bevvies, and prices start as low as $5 a drink, bargain! Of course, weāve also got a great range of non-alcoholic refreshments, too.
Need sea sickness medication? Please ensure to bring this if necessary, as we donāt generally carry this on board.
While we do provide everything youāll need to snag a beauty, if youād prefer to bring your favourite rod and reel please feel welcome. You wonāt need to bring bait, buckets or an esky though.
Fin-Nor Offshore spin reels with braided line are used for bottom fishing. The same reels are used for trolling with mono line. All outfits are rigged with high quality leader and hooks, giving you the best chance to catch and land your fish. We donāt use cheap gear, or skimp out on whatās important. We want to see you land a record breaker and will do everything possible to make that happen!
No, we have eskies on board for both your fish and your drinks. Weād prefer if you didnāt, purely for the sake of storage space and keeping the deck clear, however if youād like to bring a small esky or cooler bag to keep drinks or snacks cool then please do so.
If youāve booked a private charter, we can chat through your specific requirements and ensure youāre set up for a great time.
Contessa C fishes 14 lines at a time, but can take up to 25 passengers for group bookings.
JayBee takes a maximum of 3 passengers.
If youāve got a partner or young kids that arenāt keen to fish all day, a shared line might be a good option. This gives you 1 rod to share between two people, so you can take turns and enjoy the day at a more laid back pace. Please note, Shared Line bookings must accompany a Single Line booking.
On Absolute Ocean Chartersā Broome Fishing Charters, you can keep anything you catch as long as itās within Fisheries regulations. Itās important to follow these rules to ensure the longevity and sustainability of our oceanās health. Of course, if youād prefer to catch and release, youāre more than welcome to!
We follow Fisheries regulations on landing fish. The larger fish are filleted (usually Spanish Mackerel) while the smaller fish are gut and gilled. To read more on the exact legislation around recreational fishing, and under what scenarios a fish can be filleted, see here;
Yes! Children of all ages are welcome on our Broome Fishing Charters. We encourage you to bring the kids along for a great day out on the water, however please be aware all children on board are the responsibility of the parent at all times. Children 4 years and under are free.
