Million Dollar Fishing With Spring Tide Safaris
The Million Dollar Barramundi is an exciting fishing event in the Northern Territory of Australia. The contest attracts anglers from across the country and the world, hoping to be the lucky one. This annual contest is part of the tourism board of the Northern Territory. It brings attention to the fantastic fishing that is found in this area of Australia.
There is a lot of luck and skill to win the huge prize, and for the best possible chance, Captain Mickey Qaiser and Spring Tide Safaris is the NT charter service to choose from.
Every year, the NT travel board tags 110 fish. Ten fish are tagged as million-dollar fish, and the rest have a ten-thousand-dollar tag. The first angler that catches one of the million-dollar fish wins the grand prize, the million dollars! When the other million-dollar tags are caught, the prize for them is ten thousand dollars like the other tags.
To join this prestigious contest, you must first register before going out on the water. Then, you can take a charter boat to the fishing destinations and try your luck catching one of the tagged fish and, if you are extremely lucky, the million-dollar one.
The contest usually runs from October to March, so you have a lot of time and chances to be the top winner. This time of the year is the Barramundi season, which gives you the best chances to win.
The fishing destinations for the contest are Darwin Harbour, Kakadu National Park, the Daly River and Arnhem Land. These are some of the best places to find and reel in the $1,000,000.00 grand prize. Even if you do not catch it or any other prize fish, you will still have an exhilarating day with Spring Tide Safaris and Captain Mickey.
And do not forget that any Barramundi is a great catch, even if it is not one of the tagged fish. It is still one of Australia’s most sought-after fish and the #1 in the Northern Territory.
Spring Tide Safaris specializes in Barramundi fishing. Captain Mickey has been fishing the rivers, estuaries and backcountry fishing spots for years. He has the experience to make your trip fun and successful. If you are looking to find that million-dollar fish, he knows where the fish are no matter the weather conditions or the time of the day. So fishing with Spring Tide Safaris greatly increases the chances of bringing one of the tagged fish into the boat and, hopefully, the grand prize-winning one.
There is a one in 10 chance for the million dollar prize and 108 chances to win $10,000.00. Fishing with Spring Tide Safaris makes the chances of winning better, and even if you do not catch one of the prize fish, there are plenty of other fish in the rivers just waiting for your hook.
Spring Tide Safaris has many different charters for you to choose from to meet every angler’s needs. They have half-day and full-day trips to Darwin Harbour and a few other longer trips down rivers or to locations that are not as well-traveled. You can stay on their boat, at fish camps or resorts.
All of these trips are fun and exciting, but some may not take you to areas where you can fish for the million-dollar prize.
