INSHORE FISHING TRIP UPDATES! 🐟 🎣

As some of you may already know, we recently sold our original vessel Calypso which has been the host for our memorable Inshore Fishing Trips.

Moving forward, we are happy to still offer Inshore Fishing Trips, now being hosted aboard our Whale Watching vessel Quick Cat II. However, we are now focusing primarily on Private Charter Bookings only for our Inshore Fishing Trips.

We will be offering only a limited number of fishing trips as normal to the public over the next month or so (depending on weather & bookings) after these trips, it will only be available for Private Charter Bookings of up to 10 people.

For those who have a Gift Voucher outstanding with us, we have sent you an email regarding this change and we kindly ask that you consider using it on our upcoming trips over the next month or so. Please reach out to us via the email we have sent if you have any questions regarding this.

For those who have enjoyed an Inshore Fishing Trip aboard Calypso Hervey Bay or Quick Cat II with our team, thank you! Thank you for your support and memorable trips out there dropping a line! 🎣

We hope to see you again aboard Quick Cat II with a group of friends or family for a Private Trip!

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause however we appreciate your understanding and continued support.

Thanks so much! 🐟

They say the best 2 days of boat ownership is the day you buy it and the day you sell it, this just simply isn’t true for Sam and myself, Calypso has been an absolute pleasure to own and operate here in the bay and today was very bittersweet!!

Today we said Farewell to Calypso! 🚢 After many adventures on the bay, we've made the very tough decision to part ways with our beloved vessel. While it holds a special place in our hearts, it just wasn't the right fit for the bay's conditions meaning quite a few cancelled trips due to weather/sea conditions.

🌊 Changes to marine park green zones next year will lock us out of Calypso's main fishing area meaning we will have to travel a bit further than calypso could handle comfortably. We were presented an opportunity to sell and embark on a new quest to find a vessel better suited for these conditions unfortunately circumstances wouldn’t allow us to hold onto calypso and get a new vessel at the same time so we had to move it on when we had the chance.

This was our first little dabble into launching a tourism product from scratch and we’ve loved every minute of it and we just want to give a huge shout out and a massive thank you to all that travelled on board Calypso, especially our repeat offenders and those who stood behind us and backed us from the very start. We are certainly kicking ourselves for selling such a great little boat but we want to deliver a bit more reliability to our tour and I hope we will be back out there very soon doing just that on a Calypso 2.0!!

🎣 In the meantime, we will endeavour to run some inshore fishing trips on calypso’s sister ship the QuickCat II which has a bit more room, more comfort in adverse weather conditions, licensed bar and the same friendly crew and laid back tour that you have grown to love on board calypso as well as fishing a little further out than Calypso could🚤 Join us for exciting angling adventures as we continue to explore the beauty of the bay! Stay tuned for fishing dates here on Facebook and be part of the journey.

For those that still have gift certificates for an inshore fishing trip they are still redeemable on Quickcat’s inshore fishing trips or on a new vessel when we find one or if you don’t get the chance to get out, refunds will also be available.

Howdy guys 👋,

Billfish,Beers & BBQ

From October through to December Platypus Bay gets a run of Juvenile Black Marlin that cruise through the shallow water right up at the top of the island. We are thinking of running Calypso’s sister-ship ‘QuickCat II’ up for a few trips on the marlin after whale season (Sometime after Oct 15th), with the plan of steaming up to wathumba creek then put a spread of lures out and troll up to Rooney’s point and do a few laps up there with the lures out do BBQ lunch and we have the licenced bar on board on the last lap troll back down near wathumba then steaming home.

Numbers would be randomly drawn out of a hat to get the order of who gets a crack on the rods upon hook up. Keep it low pax 10 people or so, could possibly sell “non fishing” tickets if you wanted to bring family/partners for the day ect…

By no means a guaranteed fish or “chasing the fish” we will just be up in the right area with the right lures and have a good day out on the water. For those who have joined us onboard Calypso it would be the same relaxed vibe on board not going out to set records but going out to enjoy the day with a chance of a lifetime catch. 🤞

**If you want to actively target the marlin there are much better charters for that like Hervey Bay sport and fly or Hotreels ect…**

Just thought I’d throw the idea out there to see if there was any interest in the idea, would probably be 7hr/ish day roughly.

We’ve had a marlin on the decks before I’m sure we can manage a few more.

Let us know if you’d know of anyone who’d be keen and We’ll work out the details/costs/prices/dates and see if we can make it work. 🎣

Cheers guys 🤙🏻 Tight lines!!
