BOAT TROLLING

2010 PRICE LIST

 

There are four methods used to catch trout in the Snowy Mountains and Steve Williamson can help you experience one or all of those methods. You can use lures to spin the lakes and rivers, you can fly fish the streams or rivers, you can bait fish the lakes or why not experience a lake trolling trip from Steve’s well equipped boat, just sit back relax, enjoy the beautiful scenery while you wait for the fish to bite.      

Our boat is a 6.1 metre ‘Marlin Broadbill’ fully ‘NSW Waterways’ surveyed for you comfort and safety in all weather conditions.

Trolling is probably the easiest and most productive way to catch a trout or salmon.

A relaxing way to fish, sit back, relax and wait for the fish to bite while you cruise around beautiful Lake Jindabyne. The boat is fully equipped with the latest fishfinder, you may even see the old township of Jindabyne on our ‘Lowrance’ sonar equipment.

Try advanced trolling methods like ‘Leadlining’, ‘Downrigging’ and ‘Side planers’.

NO EXPERIENCE and NO FISHING LICENCE NEEDED !

All tackle supplied just turn up, sit back and relax!

$440.00 (4 hours - 1 to 4 people) $80 each for extra people up to 6 people total fishing.

FULL 8 HOUR  DAY TOURS are available.

MORE INFORMATION

WHAT IS TROLLING?

Trolling is basically driving around in the boat with lures out in the water while we wait for the fish to bite. It is a relaxing way to fish, enjoy the day on the water in beautiful surroundings and with a bit of luck you might even catch a trout for dinner! NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!

BOOKING GROUP SIZE

All of our tours are usually private, that is - you book yourself and bring your own party.

We do not have daily organised charters where you book as an individual and you share the booking with others. We find that personalised tours are best.

If there is only you and you want to share the cost with someone else then we will try and find someone for you to share with but it would be your responsibility to book a time and pay for the trip first.

Advantages of going alone are that your captain will also fish an extra two rods for you, so instead of fishing with just two rods you get to grab the captains rods as well (if your quick enough!)

The boat is surveyed for 8 people however we recommend that 4 people fish (that is one rod each) and group size maximum is 6. there is no guarantee we can get 6 rods into the water, you must take turns.

AGE LIMITS

There is an age limit for Children. We find that under 8 is too young to have on the boat for extended periods, due to safety reasons. 2 hour tours can be arranged for children between the ages of 5 and 8 but only if the child remains seated at all times.

BOOKING TIMES.

Most bookings during summer are either early or late in the day however we can arrange times to suit every party.

In summer tours may start at first light depending on daylight savings hours.

In winter our tours normally start at 9am and we are off the water by 4pm

BEST TIME TO FISH

We recommend that the early morning fishing and the weather is generally best at first light, however the fish may come on the bite at any time during the day so it is always a gamble.

If you’re a late starter then we recommend a luncheon or evening booking.

FISH SPECIES

Brown trout, rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon and maybe if your lucky a brook trout!

FISH GUARANTEE

We are dealing with wild animals and we can never predict how they will behave on the day.

Our catch rate on average throughout the year is one fish per hour, but you can be lucky and catch more and you can be unlucky and catch nothing!

WHAT YOU GET

ü      Fully experienced fishing guide and captain!

ü      Full explanation on methods used from guides with a lifetime of professional experience.

ü      A boat with the most up to date equipment including the very best in fish finders!

FLY FISHING

2010 PRICE LIST

 

Fly Fishing is a great way to fish and there is nothing more relaxing than standing in a stream casting a fly to a rising trout. Catching the fish is a bonus!

At ‘Steve Williamson’s Fishing Adventures’ we teach beginners and guide the experienced! Join us for a day on the water that you will never forget.

Guides are fully trained members of the ‘Professional Fishing Instructors and Guides Association’ and are very experienced on local waters.

GUIDED RIVER AND LAKE FLY FISHING TOURS

(For experience fly casters)       Lake, River or Stream

All tackle, waders, vests and flies are supplied at no extra charge.

3 hours - $300 .00  Private one person  (Extra person is $60 ppp3h)

4 hours - $375.00  Private 1 person (Extra person is $80 ppp4h)

WHAT YOU GET

ü      Fully experienced fishing guide and professional instructor!

ü      Full explanation on methods used from guides with a lifetime of professional experience.

ü      Fishing licence is included.

ü      All rods, reels,  flies, waders, fly vest and anything else you need to fish.

ü      You get to keep any legal length fish caught or you may release fish if you wish.

ü      Refreshments on tours over two hours duration.

FOR BEGINNERS - STAGE 1

Fly fishing is a sport that requires the angler to be able to cast the fly line with a reasonable degree of accuracy and gracefulness to enable the artificial fly to land on the water in a way which will not scare off the fish.

To enable an angler to do this, you must first have casting lessons and I recommend that you at least start with a 2 hour fly casting lesson to get you started. I then recommend that you purchase or hire tackle and continue to practise until you feel confident enough to go on to our 2nd stage, a fly fishing lesson. A fly fishing lesson can be conducted on either the lake or the river.

BEGINNER CASTING LESSONS.  Prices include all tackle.

2 hours - $130.00  Private one person.

2 hours - $150.00  2 people share  (Extra person is $40 ppp2h)

3 hours extended please add another $70 for 1 person or $90 for two people)

The more people in your group the cheaper the lesson - please ask for a quote!

STAGE 2

After you have had a little casting experience, it is time to learn how to fly fish.

You can firstly learn to fish the lake (recommended) or you can learn to fish the river (slightly more technical).

When you learn to fly fish, you will be taught how to select the right fly for the conditions of the day, and then you will learn how to use that fly in an effective manner to catch fish. You will learn how to ‘read’ the water and other conditions that will affect the way the fish will feed on the particular day. What you learn in 2 hours with a professional fishing guide, would take you more than 2 years by yourself, even with the aid of books and videos.

STREAM, RIVER and LAKE CRAFT.   (Boat fishing methods also available)

For those that have already done a little casting, we also teach lake, river and steam craft.

A skill which is very necessary to be able to catch fish.

2 hours - $160.00  Private one person. (Extra people is $50 ppp2h)

3 hours - $220 .00  Private one person  (Extra person is $70 ppp3h)

The more people in your group the cheaper the lesson - please ask for a quote!

STAGE 3

After you have learnt to fly cast and had some basic instruction on fly fishing techniques, it’s time to book into an extended guided fly fishing tour!  (SEE PAGE 1 FOR PRICES)

On a guided tour, you will actually be putting into practice what you have learnt over stage 1 and 2. You will be guided through the best way to catch the trout given the ‘conditions of the day’. This is the most difficult part of fly fishing, that is, being able to make an accurate assessment on the best way to catch the fish given current conditions. You will also be guided onto different types of waters, with the emphasis on the best place to fish depending on the conditions of the day!

Again, this is the best way to speed up your fly fishing ‘career’ to give to you most success. This will result in you having the most enjoyable time of your life!

Even if you don’t catch fish, fly fishing isn’t always about catching fish, it’s about being out in the open country, relaxing and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

As they say ‘Fly fishing isn’t a sport, it’s a religious experience!’.

Gillies WEEKEND Fly Fishing Courses

INTRODUCTION TO TROUT FISHING

 

BAIT & SPIN TOURS

2010 Price List

Bait and lure spinning methods are commonly used to catch trout in the Snowy Mountains and these methods are possibly the best land based ways of catching a trout. Bait fishing can only be carried out on the lakes whilst lure spinning can be done on both the lakes and in the rivers and streams.

Steve Williamson Fishing Adventures can teach you one or both of these methods of catching trout!

NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED !

All tackle supplied just turn up and let us show you how to catch a trout!

2 hours -   Lake Shore based (Extra charges for boat based tour)

$120 private.  $77 each- 2 share. $66 each- 3 share. $55 each- 4 share.

3 hours – Lake Shore Based (Extra charges for boat based tour)

$185 private.  $99 each- 2 share. $88 each - 3 share. $77 each 4 share.

* 4 hours - See half day tour prices.

2 hour FAMILY TOUR - $180  (2 adults and up to 3 children.)

Please note that there is an age limit for some tours. (No toddlers please due to safety requirements)

4 and 8 HOUR  DAY TOURS are also available.

MORE INFORMATION

BOOKING GROUP SIZE

All of our tours are usually private, that is - you book yourself and bring your own party.

We do not have daily organised charters where you book as an individual and you share the booking with others. We find that personalised tours are best.

If there is only you and you want to share the cost with someone else then we will try and find someone for you to share with but it would be your responsibility to book a time and pay for the trip first.

Bait fishing and spinning on the lake is suitable for larger groups.

It is recommended that 6 people is a maximum for river fishing.

AGE LIMITS

There is an age limit for Children. Experience has shown us that under 5 is too young for both methods of instructional fishing.

5 to 8 year olds are better taught to cast lures as bait fishing can sometimes be boring. (But casting lures can be dangerous due to the hooks. Casting plugs without hooks can be used until experience and accuracy happens.)

When bait fishing you have to sit and wait, be quite and have patience to catch fish.

We do however specialise in teaching children how to fish. (Just not necessarily catch fish!)

BOOKING TIMES.

Bookings by demand.

BEST TIME TO CATCH FISH

We recommend that the early morning fishing and the weather is generally best at first light, however the fish may come on the bite at any time during the day so it is always a gamble.

If you’re a late starter then we recommend an evening booking.

FISH SPECIES

Brown trout, rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon and maybe if your lucky a brook trout!

FISH GUARANTEE

We are dealing with wild animals and we can never predict how they will behave on the day.

Our catch rate on average throughout the year is one fish per hour, but you can be lucky and catch more and you can be unlucky and catch nothing!

CONDITIONS OF BOOKING

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FISHING.

Steve Williamson’s Fishing Adventures is a business concerned with teaching you, or guiding you, in fishing, and the last thing you probably feel like doing is reading about the risks and signing forms.

However, our insurance company now requires us tell you of the possible risks and dangers involved in the seemingly harmless sport of fishing, so please take the time to read, this carefully.

If you still feel you are prepared to take responsibility for yourself and/or those under your care, while undertaking this fishing tour or instructive course, then we can then continue on the tour.

Should you feel unsure or worried about any of the items explained below, then it is best if you consider another activity besides fishing tour you are about to participate in. We endeavour to reduce the risks to you, as much as we humanly can.

Fishing should be a comparatively 'low risk' activity. Nevertheless, there are a number of risks of physical injury you will take, if you go fishing on the water or in the Australian bush with Steve Williamson’s Fishing Adventures.

They include:

1. Fish Hooks / Lures / Flies‑ All fish hooks are capable of inflicting serious injury, especially when around a thrashing fish, whilst casting or retrieving a stuck hook I recommend eye protection, at least in the form of strong Polaroid sunglasses, which are handy for fishing anyway. If you do not have any we can supply them at no extra cost.

2. Treacherous terrain ‑ Most tours will involve wading in rivers or lakes with slippery mud or rock bottoms, and walking through bush or farmland (often full of rabbit and wombat holes hidden in tussock grass), some terrain is steep and slippery. Risk of injury from stumbling or failing will always exist, so watch your footing and always wear strong footwear, like hiking boots or sturdy thigh waders. Gum boots are not recommended.

3. Snakes, spiders etc. ‑ Poisonous creatures exist in all fishing spots, remember this is the Australian bush! Waders and full length clothing [including thick socks] help provide protection against bites, as does careful observation while walking.

4. Sunburn ‑ Any outdoor activity involves the risk of sunburn, especially aquatic activities [including fishing], as water reflects strong light, even on cloudy days. Follow Anti-Cancer Council guidelines, regardless of the forecast weather.

5. Strains and Sprains ‑ Some people find the constant casting, bending and crouching causes muscular and other discomfort or injury, particularly in the legs and back. You must exercise your judgment to ensure you stop fishing [or never start] as soon as you feel you risk injury. If you do feel it necessary to stop, make sure you have the right clothes to stay warm. Remember the rabbit and wombat holes, look where you are going at all times.

6. Water and Boats – A lot of our fishing is done from a NSW Waterways surveyed vessel. Every effort has been made to make this vessel as safe as it can be. Under NSW Waterways regulations for a 2E surveyed vessel, it is necessary for you to obey all of the captains commands. The master of the vessel must under law take all reasonable measures to supervise and control all passengers.

Always remain seated when underway. No smoking or NO alcohol on the boat please!

On occasions, due to sudden unpredictable weather changes on the lake, we may find we are in potentially treacherous water. Often when wading a river with sudden underwater drop‑offs, or strong currents extra care must be taken. If you are unsure of yourself in these conditions ‑ don't take risks. Notify the guide of your concern before setting out, and we will opt for the safer fishing locations. Always request a life jacket when on the vessel if you can not swim or you consider the conditions dangerous.

7. Alcohol / Drugs ‑ While it's difficult not to celebrate a good fish with a drink, I recommend alcohol consumption be confined to the end of the day when driving, fishing and walking are completed.

Alcohol consumption greatly increases the risk of injury in any fishing related activity.

We reserve the right to refuse, to tour with any person that we believe is under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Any payment made already made will be forfeited, as it is not our fault that the person should turn up intoxicated.

8. Medical conditions ‑ If you suffer from any medical condition that you feel could in some way increase your risk of suffering an accident while fishing, please notify the guide prior to making a deposit.

SWFA  has to date never refused to take any person fishing, including those with disabilities, however the guide will retain the right to not take any person fishing that he /she may think may be in any danger should they participate in the tour.

9. Dress ‑ Warm, weatherproof clothes should always be taken and worn if necessary. SWTFA does not undertake to supply clothing, however we can often help with a request should enough prior notice be supplied.

We also recommend, especially for full day river fishing trips, that you bring a full change of clothing just in case you should accidentally fall into the water.

Your guide has many years experience in fishing and in the Australian bush. Please note that although he/she is trained in first aid, he/ she has no paramedical training.

Finally before signing -

The above list is not exhaustive, and if you do not feel completely comfortable about accepting responsibility for yourself, please do not continue with this fishing tour.

Other Points:

a. Always check to see if you are covered for an NSW Angling Licence. You may be covered whilst on tour however licences are obtainable from fishing stores, some service stations, and Fisheries Dept offices.

SWFA accepts no responsibility for any penalties incurred by clients without such licences.

b. Cancellations or reductions in price are at the discretion of the guide.

c. Deposits are not refundable if cancellation is made by the client 30 days or less prior to the trip.

d. Cost will determined beforehand on the basis of the schedule of rates issued by SWFA, or on the basis of numbers, distance and time frame.

e. Accommodation and/or transport may be arranged on some tours.

f. Transport to and from fishing location is done on a complimentary basis and is not included in the fishing tour charge.

g. Food and drink is not provided unless otherwise stated.

h. All fishing tackle is usually included in all tours, however you may bring your own should you wish.

PAYMENT

Full payment must be made 7 days before tour date. All cancellations must be made 30 days before tour and are also subject to a 20% booking fee.

NO REFUND or TRANSFER will be made on late cancellations less than 7 days before the booking unless another booking can be found to replace the cancelled booking.
