Welcome to my fishing trip - charter page.
Fishing trips - I normally target snapper and kingfish.
Charters on Billy Ho Billy Ho is a 6.5m Marco Hardtop, with a150 h/p Honda 4 stroke Outboard.

Day Trips
Fishers will need to bring rod and reel - tackle - 2 kg pillies per fisher or 3 packets of soft bait. Bill departs Sandspit at approximately 8am and returns at 5pm. Times outside 8 - 5 can be arranged but Bill thinks 9 hours on the water is enough. You might like to come and try your new soft bait gear with your like minded friends.
We can provide tackle at $30 for a day per set. This includes a rod and reel, hooks etc and the bait. We can also supply soft bait rod and reel set at $40, and includes 1 x pkt of soft bait. Extra packets of soft bait can be bought for $15 a packet on board if required, you just need to let me know. Day trips are $620 divided by a group of 4 people.
