Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely. Whether you’ve never held a rod or you’re chasing that first barra thrill, we’ve got you covered. Our team gives a quick lesson and sets you up with gear that’s easy to handle — no experience needed, just a good attitude and maybe a bit of luck.

Definitely. Kids aged 3 and up are welcome to join in the fun. It’s safe, educational, and a blast for the whole family. Just keep in mind that children must be supervised by an adult at all times.

All fishing happens from secure, land-based casting zones — some shaded, all clearly marked. We also have throwable floatation buoys on hand for emergencies, and staff are always nearby to help. You’ll get a safety briefing before you start so everyone feels confident and relaxed.

Not at all. Since it’s a private land-based experience, there’s no fishing licence required. Just book, show up, and we’ll handle the rest.

It’s catch and release only — but you’ll still walk away with a great story and, if you're quick with the camera, a brag-worthy photo. We encourage guests to snap their own pics and share the barra love.

We’ve kept it simple and close to nature. You’ll find shaded areas, benches, and basic bush toilets. We don’t sell food or drinks, so feel free to bring a snack and plenty of water. The real value here is the setting — pure, scenic Top End wilderness.

We’re about an hour and fifteen minutes from Darwin. Head south on the Stuart Highway, then turn left onto the Arnhem Highway and continue past Humpty Doo. When you reach Anzac Parade, turn left and follow it all the way to the end. You’ll see the Humpty Doo Barramundi Farm boom gate — don’t bother stopping there, you’ll be waiting a while. Instead, take the NT track to the right about 100 metres before the boom gate. Follow that road straight to the water — you’ll find us at the end.
