Bill and Dario have been fishing the Dickson Inlet in Port Douglas for a combined 30 years. They know the Port Douglas Inlet inside and out and are experts on the fish and feeding habits of targeted species that inhabit the Estuary.

The Dickson Inlet Port Douglas is a biologically rich and diverse ecosystem that acts as a nursery for many fish species. Unlike a river, which is affected adversely by lack of rain, the Dickson Inlet is an estuary which means that the tides ensure a regular supply of fish species. And this is great news for fishermen in Port Douglas.

Sea Eagles, Brahminy Kites and a large variety of birdlife and crocodiles are regularly seen on the tour. Spectacular views of the Rex Range and Mossman Gorge can be enjoyed whilst fishing on the Dickson Inlet.

Trinity Sportfishing Port Douglas is strictly catch and release as this ensures sustainable fish stocks for the generations of recreational fishermen and anglers to come. Unlike other Port Douglas estuary fishing tours, Bill and Dario always catch live bait to use for the fishing tour. The live bait is caught using a cast net at the beginning of the tour. The use of live bait ensures aggressive predatory fish.

Quality Shimano tackle is used as well as custom built sportsfishing rods. Fish species regularly caught on Trinity Sportfishing Half Day Tours Port Douglas include: Barramundi, Fingermark, Mangrove Jack, Grunter, Queenfish, Cod, Tarpon, Salmon, Bream and Giant Trevally.

Lure and Fly Fishing Tours are also available from Port Douglas but only as a private charter. When booking private fishing charters, Trinity Sportfishing will need to be advised of the clients needs in relation to Lure or Fly Fishing.

The vessel used by Trinity Sportfishing Port Douglas is a 6 metre Cairns Custom Craft, specifically built to allow 6 anglers to fish in comfort. The full canopy provides protection from the sun. The boat, "Jessie" is stable and has a very shallow draft, enabling access to all areas of the Inlet.
