Inshore Fishing Charter Reviews

We had an enjoyable 4 hour inshore fishing trip on the Pumistone passage today. The skipper Dave was extremely knowledgeable, incredibly helpful. He tried a few locations and worked with the tides and winds so we could catch a variety of fish including perch type fish, dart fish, trevally. Will definitely recommend Saltys Fishing Charters! We will try the off shore trip next 😜 Thank you to all at Saltys 🙂
