Trish

We absolutely love Hayman Island, we return each year and it just keeps getting better and better. No sounds of traffic or police sirens, it’s a complete getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. We decided to book the half day fishing trip, which did not disappoint! We caught three huge Nannygai fish up 88cm in length – it was nothing short of epic! Tom and Tyler were our guys, it was like fishing with a group of buddies, they shared in our excitement and joy – awesome guys. We had the amazing chefs at Bam BAMS cook our fish about five different ways, it was superb! We are real foodies and very fussy. If you want to enjoy something really special get out there and catch some fish and eat it fresh that night. Truly amazing
