I usually go out fishing on Mills once or twice a year. I always catch fish, and have never gone home empty handed. Generally try fishing in the winter months to catch the snapper, but always something out there to catch. Overall Mills is a pretty efficient operation. The boat is a little overcrowded, but I guess that is reflected... More

I have gone out with Mills on a number of occasions. Their staff are always great and I usually manage to take home a great catch! I went out earlier this year and caught a nice Sambo who put up a nice fight- I was stoked until my husband hooked onto a bigger one...I've attached photos. A great day out... More

From the minute we were out of the harbour until the minute we returned to the harbour I was violently sea-sick & couldnt even stand without being ill. Whilst I completly understand it is... More

Hi. Thanks very much for your feedback. Unfortunately your seasickness sounds like it got in the way of having a great day out with us. Usually by the time anyone is seasick, it is very difficult to reverse the feeling or state, until back on land. Some people can be physically sick, and still stand to fish, but it sounds... More

We went out fishing from Hillarys boat harbour at 6am in March 2012 and while the service and attentiveness was good most people failed to catch a fish and many never even had a bite all day. Considering they have fish finders on board we were only being dropped in zones where there was one or two fish, or mostly,... More

Hi. Thanks for your feedback. We put a lot of effort and time into our charters and take all feedback seriously. Where there are valid points to act on, we will. Fishing is not catching, so unfortunately when anyone measures value against caught fish, they leave themselves open to disappointment. In saying that, we hire fishing skippers and deckhands and...

I was fortunate enough to book on Mills Charters from Hillarys Boat Harbour for a trip down the coast to celebrate Australia Day. The hosts Tash and Mark couldn't have been nicer and spoke to everyone on board, the crew were fantastic, boat spotless and most of all not overcrowded!
