We’ll soon see if Yellowtail Kingfish are making their summer rounds into Bass Strait and Southern Port Phillip Bay…fingers crossed for our Kingfish fishing charters! Yellowtail Kingfish are a species that has come back into the Melbourne region in good numbers. These fish are hard fighters and it’s a great experience to feel them on [...]
It’s that time of year again. The sun’s a shinin’ on the Mornington Peninsula, the smell of fresh cut grass drifts through the neighbourhood and, wait, that smells like… yep….it is… freshly caught snapper on the BBQ! It’s been a busy few months here at Joe Farr Fishing Charters and we’ve been fishing flat out, [...]
Great days fishing with Joe, recommended to anyone that wants to learn about and catch fish in Port Phillip Bay. Joe and his team will cater to all skill levels and make sure you enjoy the day ! R Shane November 2016

Thanks for the enjoyable fishing trip with your regulars. I prefer the smaller more personalised experience which you certainly offer. My brother in law and I enjoyed ourselves and we look forward to eating the Whiting and Calamari this weekend ahead. Kind regards, Tim 18/1/16
charter my partner and I have been on! Joe is very experienced and knows his stuff. It was a fantastic day and would recommend to anyone! Will definitely be back in the future to do more charters! Thanks Joe and John Sarah Dawson 11 Jan 2016
Had a great time. Nothing was too much trouble for Joe and his crew. A great fishing experience all round and one that I would highly recommend to others. Murray Dec 5th 2017
"I have been out fishing with Joe a large number of times and it just gets better every time. Even when we don’t catch loads the trips are still enjoyable, when we catch loads they are magical. Joes boat is one of the best on charter." Ozball 9 December 2016
What a great day we all had today! Joe’s knowledge and quality of rigs is the closest you can get to being guaranteed to hook a fish. Needless to say today won’t be our last session with Joe! Daniel Sharples 7th Feb 2016
There were 4 of us fishing, and we must have caught 80 Whiting fish… Joe knew exactly where to take us to find the good spots. We also caught Calamari!...we cooked up a fish fry for dinner that night and it was amazing. Joe was great on the boat, explaining.. how the fishing industry works in Mornington. Definitely recommend the trip, and Joe specifically… Jeff B Visited March 2016
I booked my husband and his friend on Joe Farr’s Fishing charter. Joe was a really great guy, he took the guys out and caught 60 King George whiting. Highly recommend any keen fisherman to book through Joe Farr. They are very efficient and nice people to deal with. Thanks Emily and Joe. Paula G
“There is simply no other option, from the booking process, to arrival, to getting out there and the action, this is a guaranteed great day. Just book, this charter is the best I have been on.” Mick C Dec 5th 2017 via Trip Advisor
Been on many charters and Joe is one of the best I’ve experienced. Knows his stuff and provides an enjoyable experience for everyone. My kids loved every moment. Highly recommend the smaller numbers on the boat. Don’t hesitate to book a charter with Joe. Cheers for a great day. Ben Fahey 9/1/16
We did our research and are thrilled we found Joe Farr Fishing Charters. Patrick our seven year old loved every minute of the trip! Lots of humour and loads of snapper, flathead and squid caught. We had a number of delicious BBQs with the catch. Julsen and Patrick 6th Feb, 2016
Joe was very friendly and helpful :) And I was finally able to catch some fish Vikash Makan January 2017
This is best way to go fishing, just turn up and fish, no stuffing around on the boat ramp, getting bait or wondering where is a good spot to fish.. Joe & John look after gear and ensure that you’ve always got line in the water. You go home with fish ready for the BBQ. I’ll be back Tony H November 2016
A very professional, friendly and rewarding experience. My step dad had such a great time, he rebooked and went out again two days later. Both times came home laden with snapper. He said each time he visits he will go out with Joe. A great bloke.

I have been on a lot of fishing charters in different countries, Joe’s has to be the best of the lot, the boat is comfortable and not over crowded, the gear is in excellent condition and best of all he knows his business, put us right on the fish every time. Rhonda Dearnaley
Had a good day out fishing. Joe was easy going and fun to be around and he knew where the fish were. Price was fair and we got a eski full of fish to take home. Lingy 15 March 2016
Amazing day out for myself and some clients from the Middle East.. From the minute we met Joe and his assistant, we were clearly aware we in for a fantastic day.. If you are considering a charter, I would not go out with any other company than Joe Farr Fishing Charters. Mick C Visited December 2016
It was the first time in my life when I actually loved fishing 
Thanks to Joe and his crew

It’s simple with Joe, you get what you pay for and more! He’s one of the best skippers at chasing quality fish that fight hard and eat well. Can highly recommend. Always does his best to make everyone happy and enjoy their trip. Dom
"Joe only has small groups which makes fishing very comfortable. Joe as a person is very realistic and calls it as it is with no excuses if things don’t turn out right. He knows the area like the back of his hand and knows the best times, days and areas to go." Ozball
Joe and John certainly know where to fish according to the conditions and we came back with a good catch of snapper, whiting, flathead and mackrel. The boat is ideal for a small group and we will be returning for further fishing trips. Russell and Ian Visited January 2017
Thank you for taking us out this morning! You guys are awesome! We all had a ball….We will be back again!!! Johnno and Kelz K 24 Jan 2016
We went out over the long weekend in March with Joe and John. Many laughs were had and we certainly caught enough fish to feed us for the weekend and some! I would definitely recommend Joe’s charter to anyone wanting to go for a fish down Sorrento way! Danny P, Jan 2017
A terrific 5 hours of fishing. After many seafood feasts we are now making fish cakes from the leftovers. Joe and his deckhands were great. We will book it again. Cheers Justin M, Jan 2018
Joe provided a fantastic days fishing for 3 generations of our family. Caught great diversity of fish, a reasonable number, and some of decent size. Service was exceptional, accommodating the needs of the elderly and the young. As an added bonus we were also treated a a few pods of dolphins and a couple of inquisitive seals. Everyone left with a bag full of fish and some great memories. Will be doing the same thing next year with Joe. Ross 27 April 2017
