Great experience - Lee took us for a tour of the farm.
His knowledge of the operation and love of his work was palpable.
Gaz took us fishing in the ponds.
He was a passionate and patient teacher.

Great Farm Tour Experience - We did the farm and fishing tour and had an excellent day. We highly recommend doing the farm tour and learning about the important things the team are doing behind the scenes, we found it really informative and well presented. They also give you a delicious tasting platter of fresh farm Barra between the farm tour and fishing experience. We would happily go back to fish again, they have some great trophy sized Barra in the front pond. They still fight like wild fish, jumping and throwing the lures so don’t expect to land them all! It is a great challenge which made it more interesting in our opinion.

Went fishing and caught a huge Barra - We had a wonderful half day tour of the Hook a Barra facility in the Daintree. The team there is so obviously proud of their offering and whilst the farm and operations tour was very interesting and the gourmet tasting plate delicious, by far the biggest buzz for me was to go fishing and actually catch a number of Barra, the biggest of which was 97 cm. A huge fish. No wonder fisherman from around the world travel to Far North Queensland for the exhilaration of catching a big Barra..
We will certainly return next time we are in Far North Queensland and perhaps take their new Daintree Sensations tour.

Ultimate Barra angling experience. - 5/5
So much fun. My wife & I caught some trophy Barra. The staff are so dedicated to the fish and the business, absolutely determined for you to catch the biggest (or first) Barra of your life.
Which happened to me. 95cm 👍🏼🏆 and Narelle 80cm 👍🏼🏆
Unquestionably the best bang for your buck experience in the Cairns area.
Thanks Lee, Michael and all the crew at Hook-A-Barra for the life long memories.

Mine was bigger than his!! - Did the farm tour, fishing and platter. During their 'down' period so we fished for longer than normal. Mine was about 80cm and hubby's was about 25!!! I had one on within first 5 minutes. A few got off but thats fishing. Great tour, fantastic platter - raw fish, fish balls, fish skewers, sping rolls, batterd fish. Very friendly and very professional. Neck cover a great touch. Highly recommend

Great family activity - interesting, fun and great food! - Our family of six had no idea how to fish. Michael took us on a really interesting tour of the farm, then got us started learning to cast. He and Jay helped everyone to have a great time. They were so helpful and patient, and everyone had the chance to bring in a Barra. When we were done we headed over for lunch and the food was awesome - genuinely delicious fish. We'll be looking out for Daintree Saltwater Barramundi at the fish markets when we go home. Thanks to all the team for an awesome day!
