CARPENTARIA SEAFARIS
Seafaris DVD and Brochure
Do remember this picture of Randall and me on the
cover of Fly Fishing In Saltwaters Magazine Jan/Feb 1999? If you don't, no worries. For us however, it was truly the beginning of AAFC and of another wonderful success story whose theme is Carpentaria Seafaris (detailed info) and our good mate Captain/Owner Greg Bethune. Greg snapped that picture and it became the cover for Fly Fishing in Saltwater the same month we published the first US article on mothership fishing Cape York. Back then Greg had the Capricorn Mist. She was an excellent mothership but a far cry from today's "Tropic Paradise". Greg had the Tropic Paradise built specifically for the territory around Cape York and she is the largest and most comfortable vessel from which to fish these waters.
Since that trip back in 1998 we have visited Greg's Carpentaria Seafaris (Seafaris Website) numerous times. Although each trip is memorable, the voyage with Jose Wejebe and The Spanish Fly film crew was a blast. Obviously, the trip was TV worthy as 5 episodes where recorded and subsequently aired in 2003/04/05 on ESPN2. That was the first American film crew to capture the Cape York fishery on film. Hopefully too you have seen the 2006 airing of the latest 5 Australian Spanish Fly shows featuring the Coral Sea - another first!

West Coast Cape York
West Coast Cape York
One of the many reasons that makes a trip with Carpentaria Seafaris an adventure of a lifetime, is the variety of fish species available. People who collect fish species on a catch list, have recorded a staggering fifty one different fish caught in one week. From the fresh water reaches of any of the seven rivers we visit, through their mangrove reaches, to the estuaries and coastal flats, or the near and far reefs, the choice is yours as to what you want to catch.

Large Spanish Mackerel, Giant Trevally, Coral trout, Red Emperor and Nannygai on the reefs, Permit, Queenfish, Golden Trevally and Giant Herring on the flats, Barramundi and Mangrove Jacks in the snags and the prehistoric beautiful Saratoga in the fresh water, all this can be achieved in a day, but why? You have the whole week to pursue these magnificent tropical sport fish, in the comfort of our skiffs and with the support of our mothership. There is nowhere you can catch so many fish and different fish, as on the west coast of Cape York.

Fishing Program
Some important notes about this trip. It is not fully guided you have the opportunity for you and a fishing partner to guide and run your own skiff. This is something that accomplished fisherman enjoy rather than avoid.
You could realistically fish flats, bluewater, reef and even freshwater estuary situations all in one day! If variety is the spice of life, Cape York is the source of the spice.

The Fishery
The coastal flats have all the Trevallys, Queenfish, Giant Herring (huge Ladyfish), Tarpon, and recently discovered Indo Pacific Permit, which has become the “holy Grail” of salt water fly fishing.
