About FNA Sports Fishing
FNA Sports Fishing is a family owned Charter business operating out of Darwin and also do the Giant black Marlin Season off Port Douglas.
We specialise in Bluewater light tackle sports fishing and Offshore Light Tackle fishing, out of Darwin in the Northern Territory.
We have 31 years experience in the Barramundi and Game Fishing charters industry from fishing across the top of Australia, to the fish rich waters of tropical North Queensland’s Great Barrier reef.
Game Boat HINDSIGHT
Our Vessel is a custom built 40ft game boat by BLACKWATCH Australia. Black Watch established a reputation in the rough waters of Australia for speed, comfort and dryness.
With standard twin 450 HP power Cummins Engines, the Black Watch 40 will deliver an approximate speed of 30 knots with a sizeable load, with a comfortable cruise on 22 to 26 knots. Acceleration of the vessel is sensational with manoeuvrability which is often described as one of the best in the business.
HINDSIGHT is a spacious vessel for her size and the extra beam gives the opportunity for a bigger layout inside the saloon and more comfort for guests whilst on a live aboard charter staying out on the Great Barrier Reef.
Your Skipper
Mark Parkinson has spent from his early teenage years targeting all species of Australian sport fish, from the iconic Barramundi to the mighty Black Marlin and Sports Fishing off the Great Barrier Reef.
Mark has been a fishing guide / Skipper for 30 years in both Queensland and primarily in the Northern Tropical waters of Australia. Mark is regarded as one of the finest Barramundi Guides in Australia with his best day getting his guests 23 Barramundi over a metre in a single day.
The Light tackle billfish fishery off the Dundee beach coastline for Light Tackle sailfish and Juvenile Black Marlin has helped Mark graduate into the Heavy Tackle Black Marlin Fishery off Cairns.
