MEET YOUR GUIDE
Peter McCoy | Owner & Lead Guide
Surf fishing has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.
Having spent countless hours fishing the beaches of Gippsland and the Sapphire Coast, I've developed a deep understanding of local conditions, fish behaviour and the techniques that consistently produce results from the surf.
While I enjoy targeting a wide range of species, Australian Salmon have always been a particular passion of mine. There's nothing quite like the excitement of finding a school of salmon, reading the conditions correctly and seeing a well-presented lure or bait get the desired result.
What I enjoy most, however, is helping others experience that same success.
Whether it's teaching someone how to read a beach, improve their casting technique, select the right rig, or simply understand where fish are likely to be holding, I take great satisfaction in sharing the knowledge I've gained over a lifetime of surf fishing.
My goal is for every guest to leave with more than just great memories and a few fish. I want you to leave with practical skills, increased confidence and the knowledge to continue catching fish long after the tour has finished.
If you're looking to learn, improve your surf fishing skills, or simply enjoy a great day on the beach, I'd love to share the experience with you.
