about us

A social group of dedicated fly fishers who are passionate about fly fishing in the tropical north of Australia and equally as passionate about the close camaraderie this sport brings. This passion and dedication led to the creation of the NT Flyfishers Social Mob blog site; an interactive and creative outlet where everyone can share our wonderful fly fishing adventures and link into the “after fishing” social events we enjoy in this incredible part of the world.

Bynoe this weekend

11 fly fishers congregated of the waters of Bynoe Harbour and faced weather from glass out to washing machine but a good time was had by all and as a bonus everyone caught fish!!

How silver

Friday night arrival saw “Sand Palm Schnitzels” devoured with gusto then a gathering at the camp saw some enjoying a post dinner port or two or three or four. Who was it that took a 100m walk to get to his tent 10m away? Wobbly boot syndrome!!

Few of these around for some fun
Early morning start saw us being greeted by the resident croc on the ramp and glass out seas. With the evening meal in mind, Queenfish, Mangrove Jack, Javlin Fish, Barra, Blue Salmon and Trevally were all added to the menu.

Weapon of choice!
Neap tide provided good clarity for finding the fish and exploring new waters. Had a great time trying to coax a 1m plus threadfin to take a fly. Obviously he had been a brown trout in a previous life as he patrolled a beat in small stream returning every 5 minutes or so. Too smart for me but he is still out there for you!

Small stream Barra

Great weekend had, time to plan next fishing location and see everyone on Wednesday for the meeting.

Top Tucker Jon!

Remember; “You’ll never never know, if you never never go. Get out there and fish!”

Tight line
