Extended Live Aboard Fishing Charters

Fish in style and comfort onboard the Mothership!

Do you want to immerse yourself in the best of Northern Territory fishing on our live aboard fishing charters? The best way to experience extreme remote fishing is on your own outback fishing adventure.

We specialise in group bookings of 6-8 people, with a minimum of 5 days away.

Thanks to years of experience, we know this number of people and length of stay fully optimises your experience, providing you and your group with an unbelievable adventure.

Whether you fly to our Mothership in the Mallard float plane, or cruise from Darwin, you can fish the Top End from The Kimberley to Darwin and everywhere in between.

With our Live Aboard Fishing Charters you get to fish as nature intended, except you’ll have access to ice cold beer on the back deck beer garden, air conditioning lounge area, and great food!

Extended Mothership charters leave from Darwin and include our two 7-metre tender boats. We leave by evening, you can dine, relax, enjoy a comfortable night sleep and wake up to your destination. This first night is on us!
