"Mr Flathead" fishing tours in Southern Tasmania is a family owned and operated fishing charter business that has been operating for more than 20 years. We offer a unique opportunity to fish the best local spots or just go sightseeing on the water. 
 
Mr Flathead gained their famous reputation on the back of the humble but delicious Tassie Sand Flathead and other bay species such as Salmon, Southern Calamari, Whiting, Wrasse, Cod, Gummy Shark and more.
 
Mr Flathead is now predominantly operating charters from Eaglehawk Neck. 
Fishing from Eaglehawk Neck offers extraordinary sceneries of the pristine Tasmanian East Coast with its beautifully rugged shoreline and some of the best fishing Tassie has to offer. Catches from Eaglehawk Neck often include species such as Blue Fin Tuna, Albacore Tuna, Striped Trumpeter, Flathead, Jackass Morwong, Ocean Perch and Wrasse, while encountering other wild animals such as Seals, Penguins, Dolphins, Whales and various bird species like the amazing Albatross.
 
Alternatively we still offer our bay charter operating from Dodges Ferry, targeting smaller species such as Sand Flathead, Southern Calamari, Australian Salmon and Whiting. From November to March we can target emerging warmer water species such as Yellowtail Kingfish and Snapper.
 
Choose from a half day or full day fishing charter at either location.
 
Treat yourself, family and friends to some well-earned leisure time and come aboard “Mr Flathead” for a memorable fishing and sightseeing trip with a qualified and experienced local guide who knows all the “HOT SPOTS” and beautiful sights that the locals commonly refer to as “Paradise”. Have your catch cleaned, filleted, and put straight on to ice as you continue to try for that “BIG ONE”!
