7. If you’re bringing your own boat,
it needs to be sturdy and have a
motor (no canoes or inflatables).
Because of the croc risk, it’s not
safe to sleep in your boat
overnight, camp near the water’s
edge or wade in to fish. If you
have any trouble with crocodiles,
let the local rangers know.

mighty South Alligator to the

select few operators who meet
the stringent criteria required to

experienced guides, who will
assist both beginner and
experienced anglers. They will
provide all of the fishing gear
and will coach you to cast,
retrieve and how to make your
lure the most attractive to the
Yellow Water Barramundi.

there is no need for live or fresh
bait. The boat has a casting
deck, seating, partial shade, iced
water, refresher towels and keen
guides full of fishing stories.

fish, you can choose to bring it back
