Professional Charters is a boat charter business operating out of St. Helens specialising in Tasmanian sportfishing. St. Helens on Tasmania's north east coast is the gamefishing capital of Tasmania. The area offers some of Australia's finest estuary fishing through to its saltwater gamefishing.
Rocky and Angela Carosi started Professional Charters in 1990 focusing on the outstanding calibre of sportfishing St. Helens has to offer. Rocky has twice had Rex Hunt and film crew in 1999 and 2002. The footage of large mako sharks and striped trumpeter was so impressive that Rex Hunt produced a separate video, placing St. Helens in his best top 10 fishing locations. In 2001, American angler Gary Murphy, aboard Saltshaker, competing against 100 other boats won the St. Helens Gamefishing Classic with a magnificent Striped Marlin. Step aboard with one of Professional Charters 2 vessels and you will know you are on a winner, with a first class level of facilities for you to enjoy. Click here to visit rocky & the crew
