Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    What a fantastic day out on Odin with Captain Chris on a private charter. If you can I would highly recommend the private charter. Within 10 minutes of the anchor hitting the bottom we were onto large Nannygai with 4 in the boat within 40 mins. These ranged from 700mm to a little over 900mm. There was 5 of us fishing on the boat with ample room and the twin 150hp motors had us at our fishing location in no time. We will certainly be fishing out on Odin again we we are next in Port Douglas.

    Highly recommend the Mossman River SUP trip! A beautiful float down the river in stunning surrounds. Our guide Vanessa was friendly and knowledgeable and Bretto was flexible with timing when the trip had to be postponed a couple of times because the river was up after some rain. Definitely a highlight for us and our teens.

    A fantastic day all round. The crew was great and so helpful reeling the big ones in. But being out there catching reef fish was a dream come true. Couldn't wish for better day. Thankyou so much. 🙂

    From start to finish, nothing but class. 100% recommend East Coast Angling. From booking, to preparation, to the guides employed, these guys were on it. And the onboard chef??? Amazing!

    Flynn was an amazing host and very helpful with all things fishing. We were able to experience the thrill of catching fish in an amazing environment on a magical day.

    We ventured out on Levante for 3 days. Thanks to Anna for organizing and to the crew for spoiling us with great food and company. Jim the Skipper was outstanding, Corey was great and Tim was great fun to have around and cooked up an absolute storm for each meal. They were all very chilled and relaxed which made the trip fantastic. We chased Marlin, bottom bashed, flicked lures for GT's and did some jigging as well. Ticked it all off and caught a fish in each category! Well except the Marlin, Sharpie dropped a monster! Thanks again Team!

    What a fantastic day out. The lunch was superb, and there was plenty of it. The fishing was top notch!

    Ryan, the deckhand could not do much more to help us out. Nothing was too much trouble. Skipper just seem to know where the fish were.

    So much fun!! There's heaps of information, the people who run the show are so chill and look after you. The fish are actually wild which is insane. I would definitely do it again and was the highlight of my trip

    Fishing was epic, crew was excellent, scenery around reefs was unbelievable, food was awesome. Trip of a lifetime. Only reason I rated this trip a 4 was the boat we stayed on was abit out dated and in bad need of maintenance

    Very poor experience . Only one type of bait used soft "pilchards" and only one style of fishing aloud "bottom bashing", we are very experienced in and only caught to just legal trout . I would never use Norseman charters again or recommend to any traveling friends or family

    Dean was great with the kids - more patient than I would have been anyway😊 No keepers this time but that’s fishing. The brief was to keep the kids busy catching fish & that box was ticked👍
