ASH BAY FISHING CLUB

Welcome
to the King Ash Bay Fishing Club, the club is situated on the banks
of the McArthur River approx. 52km past the township of Borroloola
(see map & road conditions
page for directions).
A two lane concrete boat ramp gives you access to a huge system of
rivers and channels (this area is famous for its Barramundi). Several
main rivers lead to the Gulf of Carpentaria which is approx. 30km
by river from the King Ash Bay Fishing Club. Offshore you can fish
for Mackeral, Tuna and a variety of reef fish in the blue tropical
waters of the Sir Edward Pellew group of islands. Maps and tide charts
for this area are available from the Mini-Mart.
For your convenience there is a Service
Station, Mini-Mart, House Boats, Accommodation
and Fishing Tours
available. The clubhouse is also open nightly from 5 - 9 pm serving
counter meals at the Groper Bar from 6 - 8pm.
The Club has 240v power available 24 hours a day and its own water
supply suitable for drinking. Coin operated washing machines are situated
in the main toilet block if needed. |
