subject: Northern Territory Fishing Trips The Best Option For A Dream Experience [print this page] Fishing tours are one of the most enjoyable experiences under the sun. It is a very pleasant alternative to rock climbing or even water surfing. The dangers involved are far less in comparison but the excitement and level of satisfaction are more or less the same. Fishing tours might, in general, seem extremely tedious and time-consuming. Some might even think that it requires a lot of patience. While all this can actually be said to be true, it should not be forgotten that the end product is worth a long wait. It is not just about fishes. It is more about the excitement of going in the midst of the blue water bodies, experiencing the fresh breeze around and sitting under the open blue skies waiting for that one big catch. As far as Australia is concerned, Northern Territory fishing trips are one of the best options. There are other good spots too Queensland, Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and others. Fishing trips are also about cozy lodges for example, Captain Cook Hotel in the midst of the Pacific is one such fantasy lodge which is a perk in itself.
There are tour operators who conduct such monthly, weekly or even daily fishing tours to rivers, lakes, creeks or even seas.

For a newcomer, it is always wise to follow the lead of an experienced individual or agency. Nevertheless, it is also important to choose the best guide for yourself.

In the Northern Territory itself, there are a variety of spots available. Arnhemland is one of the foremost choices. It is famous for its barramundi catches apart from which there are also to be found excess of other saltwater fish like salmons, tunas and mackerels as well. The giant herring is one of the most prized catches here. The region in itself is an ancient aboriginal area and thus is not very populated. The Apsley strait is the next best option, which has a number of tidal creeks, estuaries and reefs for fishing. Mangrove Jack is the most sought after creature here apart from Fingermark Bream. This place has a beautiful lodge at ones service too Clearwater Island lodge. For those who want to start out on a fishing adventure to remote virgin areas Vivs Sportfishing and Wilderness Safari shall be the best option. Operating out of Darwin, Viv is one of the most experienced hosts one could get for such a tour. Jarbu Lodge, Bamurru and Bullo river station are other good alternatives, each unique in the kind of experience it shall provide you with.
Fishing cannot be done in all seasons.

However, in all cases, one should not miss out on the Northern Territory fishing trips and Captain Cook Hotel.
