Fly Fishing Sydney Harbour is a unique experience. When one thinks of fly fishing destinations they think of remote coral atolls or distant river systems. People rarely believe that good fishing can be had close to major population centres, but in the case of Sydney this could not be further from the truth. Sydney harbour is home to Australia's largest city, yet the fly fishing to Australian Salmon, Yellowtail Kingfish, and a variety of Tuna species can only be described as outstanding. With iconic structures like the Sydney Harbour bridge, the Opera House and the CBD as a backdrop casting a fly on Sydney Harbour provides a surreal yet beautiful fly-fishing destination.
Catching the Sydney Harbour Slam, four of the harbours most prized species in a day, - namely the Yellowtail Kingfish, Australian Salmon, Bonito and Striped Tuna - will make a highly memorable fly fishing achievement. There are a host of other species game to eat a fly and casting to bream around the oyster racks is another fly fishing experience that will keep you wanting to go back for more. With also the possibility of cobia, trevally, tailor, mullet and flathead, you can be assured of a great day out!
Fly fishing in Sydney is a destination in its own right and is worthy of a lengthy stay, but it is also a great way of squeezing a few extra fishing days out of your southern hemisphere fly-fishing journey. By planning a Sydney stop-over you will be able to get out on the harbour and have one of the best views of the city going around and at the same time get to experience the joys of fly-fishing this magic place.
