Abrohlos charters

fellow fishers...

Looking at doing a live on board charter next April in Abrolhos.
Enquired with one which was booked out for the times we wanted and another hasn't bothered responding.
Looking at going with Blue Juice charters.
Anyone been on or heard good reviews about them?
2 girls that love fishing, counting down the days!

 went on a charter to the abrolhos with blue juice this year and found them to be a good bunch of blokes. Fishing was tough but still caught plenty and had a ball.

 All depends on the crew you

Mon, 2016-10-10 21:14

 All depends on the crew you end up with. Deckie with a possitive attitude and good work ethics. Personally couldnt give a rats ass what attitude the skipper has as long as he knows how to find fish lol but it does suck when you have a shit skipper. I know because i used to work for them. Some good, some bad. If gary still owns bluejuice make sure you get on with him or aaron. Both experienced fisherman that know there stuff. But at the end of the day its just another charter company thats poorly managed from time to time. +1 for craig at saltwater. Only fished with him once but was a much more enjoyable experience allround for me.

Bluejuice Charters

Tue, 2016-10-11 07:58

Took my son 14 yr son in July just gone.

Skipper - Really good bloke & knew what was going on.

Deckies x2 - Good blokes but one spent more time fishing than some of the customers.

Boat - Average, Old & tired.

          Food - Really good & Deckies did a good job preparing.

          Sleeping quarters hard work. Vey confined & not much room below deck.

          Only 1 toilet. As you could imagine with 12 blokes onboard got a work out & wasn't too inviting.

Overall - We both had a ball & caught plenty of fish.. (Nothing huge all trip but lots of different species)

Would I go again - Yes but I'd pay a little more and go on a better boat & a different time of year.

Send us a PM if you'd like more info!

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Been up there with Craig a few times. He is a gun, knows all the spots, doesn't waist any fishing time and will put you onto anything you want to catch. He is a very chilled out skipper which makes it a more enjoyable experience.

 Hey there i havent been with blue juice for a couple of years but i would hope that they changed the skipper and crew as i have done many trips and live aboards and this would sadly have to be one of the worst i have ever experianced the first time i went with them they were great and used them often and the more i used them the worse it got crew back then got complacent and slack
