Guest Sea Jay Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 (edited) Just a general question, i am not sure if i am allowed to ask this question (SORRY IF IAM NOT) I was looking to do a fishing charter from sydney habour or botany bay, can anyone suggest any good ones that i should try, i understand that most places are going to be booked out I was just looking for suggestions of ones that people have tried and have liked becasue i have done ones before out of the yellow pages and found them to be not very good I didn't want to do a deep sea charter though, and just a half day trip!! I remeber there was a guy at ABA that did a charter and sounded really good, but i cant remember the name of it. Merry Christmas Edited December 25, 2005 by Sea Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken A Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 No dramas at all with that question. The guy you may be thinking of from ABA could be Dean Hayes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken A Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 There are a few charter guys who do the harbour & some of the members have fished with them maybe they can make a recommendation. I personally have heard Dean Hayes is very good. no no no has happy customers also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rzep Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I went on a charter with Dean Hayes about 3 months ago and I was very happy with the day. There was no dramas at all and every one had a good day. I would recommend Dean to any one. Regards Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Sea Jay, We met Dean out at Tunks Park and headed out of North Head. We ended up catching Salmon that day which were about 70cm or so! It was a really good day, he will show and teach you anything you wanna know. My and I are planning on organising another trip with him sometime soon also! You will have a good day!

marinrubelj Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Hi there,I have done a day on the water with Dean Hayes and he is very good at what he does,one thing that you might want to think about is the type of species you would like to target,Dean I think is mainly sportfishing,mostly lures,flies etc but if you want to learn how to catch jewies or others on bait it might pay to ask what they specialise in, as we have been shafted before also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsRule Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Me and my dad went out with des toms from hook em & cook em the other day. No matter what we tried we couldnt get any takers, ventured round to bluefish where there was a few kings on the surface but by the time we got a decent shot there was about 5 boats on them which put them down (scotty lyons?, was out there with some clients and had already boated 8:1badmood: ) Des certainly knows his stuff!! Bad news - no fish good new - get to go out again for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
