This trip is going too well for Ian and Rene. Blessed with glamour weather, we can only hope it is a good sign for the season to come - but that might be hoping for too much!!
Currently 45nm from Daydream Island and coming up on Brampton Island, Ian and Rene spent another night in complete calm at anchor of Keswick Island. A 40cm Coral Trout provided dinner which was fried in panko crumbs, served with potatoes and salad which in the skipper's words "Would even put Masterchef to shame!" This is just a taste of the kinds of meals that can be expected on board your Phantom fishing charter.
Typically a day at charter will start with snorkelling over the Great Barrier Reef while Rene prepares breakfast. Cereals, yoghurt, juice, tea and coffee are available from when you wake - and the cooked breakfast of fresh fish, bacon and eggs or eggs benedict will be waiting after the morning's activities. After this some "bait" fishing and light tackle playing will take place until you pop out of the reef and go hunting for the big black marlin. Morning tea is usually something freshly baked by Rene and lunch will be either fresh meat and salad rolls, pasta or a number of other options. Once a couple of fish have been tagged, and if you are looking for more food, afternoon tea will be served which changes every day. After the days fishing a return to the reef will provide ample opportunity for reef fishing and fun while Rene prepares the 3 course dinner. You can certainly see why the boat often sits a little lower in the water on the way back as people are certainly well fed!!
The Phantom has spots left for charters like this and can also accommodate your one day charters. Call us to arrange your trip of a lifetime!!
