Awesome day. Dad w 2 teen boys. We booked a half day that lasted from early morning to late afternoon. Got the bang for your bucks! Great fishing spots, not a really dead moment, super friendly crew. Exciting catches. We even saw a shark at the end of one reel! The eye-opener and really moving moment was after the tour when we go altogether in town to slice and share the fish! The vibe was so true! There’s nothing like eating and cooking one’s own catch. For us it felt like a true good experience.TripAdvisor review – April
My husband and I had a great day out with Mahi Mahi last week. We shared a line for the day. The Skipper and decky were amazing ensuring we all caught plenty of fish, helping us with lines, giving us advice and providing us knowledge and facts. We were fortunate to see plenty of marine life and their natural environment. We will be back!

Great day out with a great catch. Skipper and deckhands were welcoming helpful funny and patient. Comfortable boat, great time catching a range of premium fish including goldband, pearl perch, cod and jobfish. Would definitely go again.

Was a little apprehensive about going on a fishing charter but it was the best thing I have done for ages. The staff and crew were amazing and we all walked away with huge smiles on our faces and I caught my first Red Emperor Yay! Winning. Highly recommend these guys you won’t be disappointed.

Charter skipper Bernie Vale has done it again.
Widely regarded as one of the best in the business in WA, he continues to put his clients on to good fish out of his Coral Bay base.
John McIntosh, 71, was one of 10 fisherman from the Dalkeith Bowling Club to enjoy a superb four-day charter with Bernie’s Mahi Mahi. John, a former Claremont and St Kilda footballer and the father of former Eagles defender Ashley, has long been a keen angler and reckoned it was the best fishing trip he’d been on, which is not suprising given they caught 15 Red Emperor over the four days.
The best of them came in at 8.6kg and was pulled from 80m of water using trusty Shimano TLD 25. It was a lovely trophy red and John has won a Squidgy pack that he can collect from any of Compleat Angler’s three WA shops. He is in the running to win the monthly prize of a Shirmano rod and reel combo.
