Smithys Fishing Charters With great sadness we share the passing of Robert Smith, the heart & Captain of Smithy's Fishing Charters. Due to this tragic loss, all charters are cancelled.

Apologies for the disruption & we appreciate your understanding during this difficult time. Smithys Fishing Charters is unique in the fact that they run two boats, the 7.7m (25’) offshore boat “Capricorn” and the 4.55m (15’) inshore boat “Kuhlia” to make the most of the prevailing weather conditions. Established over 13 years ago, local owner operated Smithys is now the longest working charter boa

t businesses out of the port of Mooloolaba.

“Capricorn” is centrally located on the Minyama canals off the Mooloolah river at the Kawana Waters Hotel on the Sunshine Coast and “Kuhlia” is on a trailer so can operate anywhere in South East Queensland.

Joel caught a couple of mid 40s on the way home Sunday afternoon on Final Edition. I think we ended up 7/8 on snapper in a few drifts but definitely had our chances at bagging easily. No marlin or deep drop fish out wide.
