Fresh wild caught premium fish. 
Chris Bolton Fishing
Whether you are a chef at a 5-star restaurant looking to make every meal special, or a fisherman wanting to have the best chance of hooking that special fish, you won’t be disappointed with the quality of our product.
We bring to you some of the finest quality wild caught fish to ever leave the ocean.
Every single fish we catch is handled with the care and respect it deserves.
Every fish we sell is sashimi grade, the best of the best.
We are a small, family owned and operated fishing business based at Kurrimine Beach, Nth Queensland. I am the skipper and fisherman on every single fishing trip. With help from my partner Kim, my father Wayne at times, and 1 or 2 deckhands, I am hands on with every part of our business. From catching the fish, cleaning boats, taking orders, packing fish, or just having a good old yarn with customers, I am there. I believe this is the only way to ensure everything is up to the standard our customers expect.
Our line-caught reef fish are killed instantly and humanely using the ike-jime method. Fish are bled well and immediately placed into a salt ice brine to bring their temperature down to 2oC. Once this is achieved, every fish is gently hand-packed, one by one into our custom-made fibreglass eskies and covered with flake ice.
Many New Zealand users choose Vegasino for its simple registration, fair payouts, and a good mix of online casino games.
Having small, fast boats means we don’t catch large quantities. It means our fishing time is very short – very rarely more than 24 hours fishing before returning to port, with some trips as short as 6 hours.
When returning to port, we don’t unload at the wharf. Our boats are winched onto a trailer, towed by an ex-sugar cane haul-out tractor, and the catch is driven right to the door of our coldroom and packing facility, which was designed and made by myself to suit the way we operate. Our catch is unloaded from the boat and immediately packed for transport, with minimal handling and in the shortest possible timeframe.
Air freight is our preferred method of transport, unless we are supplying to the local area of course.
Premium Quality
We can have any and every fish we catch delivered to anyone, anywhere in Australia within hours of being caught…
All at premium quality.
Wild Caught Fish
Wild caught fish is one of the healthiest foods on the planet.
These fish aren’t fed processed pellets, or had any hormones or antibiotics in their system.
They have lived a life most of us dream of — a life in the clean waters of the Coral Sea, amongst the beautiful Great Barrier Reef.
Every day they are eating delicacies such as squid, sea urchins, prawns, sardines, fusiliers, garfish, crabs and more. Is it any wonder they taste so good?! 100% pure organic, natural food. The way nature intended.
If healthy eating, premium quality, and sustainability are your concerns, be concerned no longer.
Supplying Australia with healthy, sustainably and responsibly caught, premium quality fish is our job. And we take our job very seriously.
Sustainability
Proud to be Reef Guardian Fishers
As a commercial fishing business, we rely on a healthy, sustainable environment.
We believe if we do the best we can by the environment, the environment we rely on will do the best for us as well.
The Great Barrier Reef is more than just a place we rely on for our business, its our life, its our families life, and we want it to stay that way for generations to come.

Spots on spots....... not something you see every day.
There's a few particular reefs up north where, in my experience, 95% of the trout have these black markings, although it's usually just a handful of dark spots/blotches scattered here and there. These 2 here are a couple of the most distinctive I've seen.
Its only on the skin, there's no affect on the flesh.
Doesn’t look natural.
Yeah those few reefs still throwing black spots on the trout.
Sea urchin spikes
Wonder wat the coral is like on that particular reef like u know the trout change colours when deep or go darker when in the shallows or. Maybe its a deformity or pigment mutation like those barcheek trout in 1770 area
Covid
It’s not new Seen that on trout back in the 90s Same reefs always Always wondered why ?
They stressing over the fuel cost hahahahaha I have seen that before on a few trout
I’ve seen that regularly.. it’s a parasite just under the skin
So how many spots should a coral trout actually have ???
How’s the Barra line fishing going ? Weather been rough?
That’s different first time I’ve seen that Chris
Always learning something new about fish
Few years ago I was up north on the seeker and we pulled up behind a island for the night and every trout we got had them on it but didn't find it around the reefs north of cook town
Been to the tattoo parlour π
It is labor pox, it will get worse before it gets better.
Respect your catch 101 π
It's a far cry from my days when you caught a barra, cut its throat or gill plate, then placed it in your esky (sometimes not even on ice), for cleaning & eating later. Your fish are pristine in all matters. Fresh, no contamination, & most important of all - it will be a taste sensation. Well done ππ
Very nice π
Nice
No net marks there. Prime
How do you go with the spike? I find them a bit of a bastard compared to most fish. Similar placement to what you have there, but find I need to start straight down and then angle forward to hit the spot
Something for everyone this trip. All line caught of course π
We've had testing conditions since the start of barra season. Unsettled weather, relentless north-westerly winds and thunderstorms. 5kts south-east in the morning, 25kts northwest a few hours later......every day is a test......
Changing target species almost daily. Constantly adjusting. Constantly thinking.
Constantly changing and adapting. And that there is something a lot of people have trouble with........
Hi Chris what do you do with the scads I can't lose them as a troll bait or for the bottom bait thank
Only the best of the best can keep producing when conditions are against you. Well done as always
Do you sell dead directly to the public?
Love it mate nice work!!! I wish it would rain already ππ
