Be prepared to put up a fight during this action-packed fishing expedition in search for snapper. Departing on the tides, you will be armed with premium bait and quality Shimano rods to increase your odds, with all legal-sized catches to be taken home. Food and hot drinks are provided on board.
Experience the thrill of action fishing during this recreational fishing charter! You'll be on the hunt for snapper, one of the most prized fish in Australian waters, who are also known to put up a fight. The best time to catch them is on the tides, which is exactly when you'll be sailing. You will be boarding the 'Sidewinder I' a semi-covered, hulled purpose-built fishing vessel ready for adventure. Your knowledgeable captain will provide you with premium bait and Shimano rods and reels, so simply lay in wait for that elusive tug. Transfers to the fishing location within Corio Bay are quick, giving you more time to fish and to soak up the good vibes on the water. All legal-sized fish you catch can be filleted and packed on ice for you to take away and enjoy at home.
There are 2-3 small steps to access the vessel. Participants must be able climb these. All participants 14 years and over must be double-vaccinated and show proof of such.
Maximum of 14 participants.
Spectators are welcome but are required to also purchase a ticket for the appropriate age category.
All charters are subject to weather conditions.
Although the vessel is partially covered, participants are exposed to the elements, so it's advised to dress very warmly in winter (hat, scarf, gloves, coat, covered shoes) and in summer to bring a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen. Hand warmers and sunscreen are also available for purchase on the boat.
3-hr metered parking is available all around the departure point.
This experience departs from Geelong, VIC.

We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we’ve got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we’ll do the work for you.
Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
