I have known Alan for 35 years, he is an outstanding fly fisherman, guide, and operator who has fished the waters of Cape York for the last 20 years. NO ONE knows these waters like Fish and regardless of species, he and his crew of outstanding guides will show you a great time on the water in one of the world’s GREAT light (and heavy) tackle fly fisheries."

"I’ve had the privilege to fly-fish the western coast of Cape York with Fish and his guides for close to two decades. They have taught me most of what I know about saltwater fly-fishing, and year after year have allowed me to catch the fish of my dreams. Fish and his team have an unsurpassed understanding of this extraordinary fishery. My annual visit to them is the highlight of my saltwater fishing year."

"I first went to Weipa in 2009 to be guided and accommodated by Fish’s Sports Fishing Operation. Since then I have returned tevery year, sometimes twice, with either my brother or a mate. Fish's operation provides, by far, my most enjoyable fishing experience. For an average fly fisherman to catch the quantity and range of fish in one location is truly remarkable. Fish runs a highly professional operation with himself and his fellow guides being skilled fisherman and also being friendly and supportive. The accommodation and food provided is to a very high standard. There is nothing better than sitting on the deck of the lodge, watching the sun set and having a beer after a great day’s fishing."
