Meet YOUR GUIDE

  • JUSTIN LITTLE

    CO-FOUNDER

  • Hey, I’m Justin — founder of Fish On Charters and your guide on the water.

    Born in Maitland, NSW, I’ve been fishing since I was big enough to hold a rod. It’s taken me across Australia — from the east coast of NSW and QLD, to the remote stretches of WA and the NT. Whether it’s from the bank or the boat, I live and breathe the chase.

    Over the years, I’ve built a career around what I love. I’ve spent the last few years in the Northern Territory and working as a fishing guide at one of Darwin’s most popular barra Impoundment — helping hundreds of happy clients hook into big fish and create even bigger memories. I also hold a current Coxswain licence, with 3 years of chartering experience.

    Now based in Central Queensland with my wife Donna by my side, we’ve started Fish On Charters to share our passion for fishing and the outdoors with others. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned fisho, I’m here to help you learn, improve, and (hopefully) land that fish of a lifetime.

    Let’s get on the water, learn something new, and put a few fish on the line.

TESTIMONIALS

  • "Justin was tops! He helped our 6-year-old catch a 58cm golden snapper and guided our whole family to 21 fish — including a 75cm barra for dad and a 78cm barra for our 12-year-old. Great day, great guide. Highly recommend!"

    - The West Family, WA South

  • Amazing experience! Our interstate guest landed the biggest barra of the day — his first ever. The setting was beautiful, and Justin made it feel like fishing with a mate. Couldn’t recommend it more."

    - The Foldock Family

  • "The location was stunning and peaceful. Even if you're not super into fishing, it's a great day out. Justin made it feel like fishing with an old friend — friendly, relaxed, and full of laughs."

    - Bianca Fildock, WA
