El Syd will be able to put you onto someone, flick him a PM or search some of his previous posts. He's put info up on this question before.

I went out with Territory Guided Fishing a couple of weeks back and they were okay.  They only take up to 4 people which makes life a bit more comfortable; they don't do much bluewater stuff though from what I gather.  We hung out around the Vernon Islands and fished the dropoffs and sandbars.  Got a few fun fish but things were quietish and the skipper didn't really mix things up much so it was a bit frustrating.

Whoever you decide on make sure you book in advance though, things are chockas up there at the moment.  I called around trying to find somewhere two days in advance and struggled.  the earlier you can book the better.

 for a bottom bash I use

 for a bottom bash I use Arafura blue, but do an extended trip that way you will have a better chance of some size fish.

for a smaller'sized boat like inshore and river work try Ben from vision sports fishing, new guy but works hard.

And like Ben Dereki said book early.

If after a landbased fish on a weekend up here just message me.

cheers syd
