Fishing Mackay includes tackling the well established freshwater impoundments that are home to sooty grunter and barramundi. River and estuary systems are affected by tides up to six metres and consequently turn on some superb fishing. The Great Barrier Reef and islands are home to a vast number of temperate and tropical species of reef fish along with monster pelagics.
The Mackay fishing website will help you find an idyllic slice of the regions most popular and accessible fishing locations and hopefully catch a few fish from them.

You can also find up to date reports on what’s biting around the region as well as informative articles that may provide that all important info for your next fishing trip.
