Quobba Station has a reputation as one of Australia’s longest stretches of coastline for Land Base Game Fishing. Try ballooning, spinning, bottom bouncing, salt water fly and spear fishing.
“Quobba Station is equal to any land based game fishing in the world – I have been coming for 42 years, and always find it hard to leave.” – Allan Barker
The 80 kms of Quobba Coastline is a unique piece of Australia. There are very few places where you can see such a rugged yet so beautiful coast. With the water depth reaching up to 80ft, casting distance from the rocks, the opportunity to catch game fish is almost unlimited. Spanish Mackerel, Shark Mackerel, Broadbar Mackerel, Cobia, Tuna, Benito, Sharks and Sailfish have all been caught from the Quobba rocks!!!!. Reef fish waiting for you to catch include Norwest Snapper, Pink Snapper, Bald Chin Groper, Queenfish, Trevally and a plethora of other species. You shouldn’t go hungry!
5 miles North of the homestead, 20ft above sea level is one of Quobba’s most consistent spots on the coast for catching Spanish mackerel, tuna and the odd sail fish during the winter season. Ballooning, spinning and bottom bouncing is best with a low swell and offshore winds.

An extremely picturesque spot, very difficult to access (4WD only), great spinning and bottom bouncing to be had. 20ft pole gaff needed. The Caves are not fished regularly because of its isolation; a good level of fitness is required for the long walk in.
