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.

    One of the great successes was that declaration,under the guidance of John Harrison CEO Afant at the time and my involvement as President of the NTGFIA.
    The other great success was the Bynoe Harbour Closure,it was so depressing to turn up on a flat and see nets blocking each end.
    I never had a problem with Commercials as there is a market for Barra for a lot of visitors but the interaction had to be avoided with tourism and recreational fishing
    Consider there are about 7 licenses now down from over 200 in the late 90's.
