Tag Along Fishing Charters
Do you want to be master of your own destiny when you fish the Top End?
Well weigh anchor and chart your own course, knowing that each night you can take safe harbour on board our mothership, Brute Force.
Plan your Tag Along Fishing Charter with us and we’ll make sure you’ll spend more time angling and less time heading back and forth to shore during your precious time off.
If you live in the Top End and own your own boat, this has to be the easiest option to choose because it really does give you the best of both worlds!
Bring your own tinny, and use our ‘Mothership’ for facilities and accommodation. We’ll meet at a location or we’ll work in together, moving along with a designated plan.

Such an amazing week out on the water with Scotty and the crew! Big catches, lovely scenery, perfect accommodation, great way to spend a week out fishing! Keep up the lovely work!

I’ve done many humbug trips now, from short trips to extended trips and I have seen the most amazing sights and I have experienced things that you would never ever dream of. Scott and the crew are fantastic, easy to get along with and have all the knowledge and experience you would expect Whilst on a guided trip. Mother ship and tender boats are fantastic, plenty of living and fishing space for all to enjoy.

We went up fishing in May 2013 and caught some excellent fish. Scott is the best guide we’ve had over the last 5 years we’ve been fishing. We are going again.
