With more than 55 species of fish available, our guided fishing trips in Weipa, Australia can incorporate many different styles and locations. From fishing offshore for larger pelagic specie, to fishing the beaches and flats, creeks, rivers and estuaries.

Our Fly and Sportfishing Charters operate in one of the most unique fisheries on the East coast of Australia. The sheltered waters of Hervey Bay and Fraser Island are one of the very few places in Australia that have an overlap of southern and northern fish species.

Whether it be targeting the pelagic species that migrate to the south-east Queensland coastline each year to feed on the abundant schools of baitfish, or drifting through a serene wilderness lake setting, sight-casting to Australian natives, we have your bases covered…

You will be guided and coached in the skills required to catch any one of a number of species. The merits and selection of the different fly patterns for the species you are targeting will be discussed. You’ll be coached on how to overcome the problems caused by wind and current and be shown tips for effective stalking and sight casting.

Guided fly fishing trips on Tasmania’s pristine lakes and rivers are our specialty. Whether polaroiding the shallow western lakes, sight casting to mayfly feeders, tailing trout or midging fish, the Rainbow Lodge guides will provide you with an unforgettable and unique experience.
