After battling the seas and wind the boys returned from their 4 days away saying they'd all do it again - that's a good sign! No marlin but PLENTY of reef fish and other pelagics made the fishing worthwhile. It was a pity about the weather - but you can't pick it sometimes!! Here are a few pics of the catch..
Another use for the live bait tank..
Obviously this one was more important to a shark!
Nice one!
Nothing beats snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef!
Not bad for by-catch!
Some of the catch..
Red Emperor
Thanks for coming along guys and we look forward to having you back on board!
The Phantom is a 51 foot enclosed flybridge Riviera, designed for Heavy Tackle fishing on the Great Barrier Reef and for fun tackling the local fishing waters of South East Queensland. The vessel has been further customised to accommodate Light Tackle fishing. This is the ultimate way to land the fish of your dreams.

Catch up...
Hi All, it's been a while between blogs but with good reason... Ian and Rene left the reef for a couple of weeks to attend Simone and Frank's wedding - congrats guys!! But they are now back on the reef and set off yesterday for a charter with the guys from Built.
Rough going, we had a few casualties, and I think everyone was happy when the decision was taken to seek shelter behing Opal Reef for the night. After getting steady the guys had a ball cleaning up on reef fish and I hear they have just enjoyed a breakfast of coral trout before heading out for some light tackle fishjing for the day. Unfortunately you can't control the weather but the team is doing their best to give the guys a great time!! Pics to follow - just thought we'd touch base!!
