Captain Jake, will also be targeting the legendary Black Marlin. A full day on the reef is the ultimate fishing adventure.
If you're short on time or prefer a shorter fishing trip, our half day coastal reef and river option is perfect for you. This trip combines fishing in both coastal reef areas and the calm rivers of Port Douglas. You can expect to catch a variety of species such as Barramundi, Mangrove Jack, and even the occasional Estuary Cod. It's a great option for families or beginners looking to experience the thrill of fishing.
Escape 2 is our pride and joy. It is a custom-built Haines Hunter boat equipped with all the latest technology and comforts. With over 400hp, it ensures a fast and smooth ride to the fishing grounds. The boat features state-of-the-art Simrad Electronics, 3D scanning capabilities, and a Bluetooth stereo system.
We recently added Reelax outriggers and a Loanstar Anchor Winch for an even better fishing experience. Escape 2 also provides ample Esky space to keep your drinks, lunch, and catch of the day cold, as well as shade to protect you from the sun during long days on the reef.
Our experienced and passionate captain, Jake, has been fishing since he could walk. With years of experience and a deep love for the sport, he knows the waters of Port Douglas like the back of his hand. Jake has fished all over Australia, from chasing Snapper in South Australia to battling Giant Black Marlin in Port Douglas. He has worked as a chef on Heron Island and Lord Howe Island before deciding to pursue fishing full-time.
Jake has competed in numerous heavy and light tackle competitions and has fished in remote locations such as Princess Charlotte Bay and the Gulf of Carpentaria. His true passion lies in making his customers smile and providing them with unforgettable fishing experiences.
At Exceed Sport Fishing, we are committed to practising sustainable fishing. We prioritise the well-being of the fish and their habitats, and we encourage catch and release when appropriate. However, we also understand the joy of taking home a fresh catch for a delicious meal. We strive to strike a balance between conservation and providing our customers with a memorable fishing experience.
Whether you catch a 1000lb Marlin or a small bream, Captain Jake's goal is to put a smile on your face.
