The fishing grounds of Port Douglas are exciting and diverse and are unrivalled anywhere else in the world.

It is embraced with natural world heritage listings and is nestled amongst a postcard, tropical paradise showcasing an exclusive combination of reef meeting the rainforest.

Relating to the everyday and serious angler, local fishing identity 'Heff',  is Port Douglas's very own fishing journalist and ABC Radio fishing reporter for Far North Queensland.  He is the local fishing mail man with the latest inside information and has spent many years fishing and dealing with the operators and guides in the region.
