Learn to Fish with Confidence

Our fishing lessons are suitable for children and adults, from complete beginners through to those wanting to improve their fishing skills and techniques. Every lesson is tailored to your experience level and what you’d like to learn, with time spent fishing and putting those new skills into practice.

Fishing lessons can take place on the beach, along the lagoon banks or from our lagoon boat, depending on the type of lesson, the season and the conditions on the day.

All rods, tackle and bait are provided, but if you have your own gear and would like to learn how to set it up and use it more effectively, you’re welcome to bring it along and we’ll work with it during your lesson.

Where expert guidance meets unforgettable moments.

The Lesson

Fishing Lessons focus on building confidence, understanding the fundamentals, and helping you become more comfortable and capable around fishing gear, conditions, and techniques.

Matt will guide you through practical aspects such as:

  • Rod and tackle setup
  • Knots, hooks, and line selection
  • Bait collection and presentation
  • When, where, and how to cast, and how to reel in correctly
  • Reading water movement and structure
  • Understanding tides, wind, and weather conditions

Ideal for

Kids wanting to learn how to fish

Beginners learning the fundamentals of shore-based fishing

Adults wanting to improve their confidence and technique

Anglers wanting help understanding their own gear and setup

Couples, friends, or small groups wanting to learn together

Lessons are tailored to the individual, with sessions best suited to one-on-one tuition or up to 2-3 people.

Fishing Lessons

Lessons are planned according to weather conditions,  season, and what you’d like to learn or focus on during the session.

While catching fish is always exciting, the focus of these sessions is on learning, building confidence, and developing practical fishing knowledge.

Half-Day Lesson

Approximately 5–6 hours, either in the morning or afternoon.

Fishing lessons can take place from the beach, along the lagoon banks, or from the lagoon boat

Kids Lessons

For younger children, lagoon-based fishing lessons are often the easiest and most comfortable introduction to fishing, while older kids and teens may enjoy learning from either the lagoon or the beach using surf gear.

All lessons are adapted according to the child’s age, confidence level, skills and experience.

Gear & Bait

We provide all rods, tackle, and bait needed for the lesson, and the gear is selected according to the location and fishing conditions on the day.

You’re welcome to bring your own gear or combine it with ours depending on your preference. If you have gear that you’d like to bring along but aren’t sure about, Matt will be able to guide you beforehand.

If you’re looking to buy your own gear, Matt can also assist with recommendations and help guide you through selecting suitable rods, reels, tackle, and setups.

We use fresh bait wherever possible, and bait collection is often included as part of the lesson. Depending on the conditions on the day, you may have the opportunity to get involved yourself or observe while Matt demonstrates the process.
