Book Direct with the Owner at Fishing The Fitzroy with Accommodation Nelson Bay in Rockhampton City, for all your Tourism Listing requirements.
Rockhampton is the only city in Australia where you can fly in, check in and boat out in less than an hour targeting trophy Barramundi and King Threadfin.
The Fitzroy River is famous for Barramundi, pronounced “bardda moon di” by the Darumbal people, Central Queensland’s indigenous people. This defines the Fitzroy River catchment as the genuine Home of the Barramundi in Australia.
King Threadfin are also found in abundance in the Fitzroy River, the largest river on the eastern seaboard of Australia. With a total catchment area of 156,000 square kilometres, the river provides prime estuary and freshwater fishing country.
In addition to the Fitzroy River itself and its many tributaries, the floodplain holds a number of freshwater lagoons, brackish lagoons and waterholes. These include some easily accessible lagoons on the south side of the city which can be fished from the bank.
No matter who you are, how you want to fish, or what you want to catch, the Rockhampton Region is ready to welcome you....
