Hooker 1 Fishing Charters operates from Main Beach, Queensland, offering guided fishing trips on the Gold Coast. The company runs shared and private charters with clear, fixed durations and inclusive provisions to simplify the fishing experience.
Shared options include a 9-hour Full Day Shared charter, a 7-hour 3/4 Day Shared charter, and a 5-hour 1/2 Day Shared charter for ages 10 and up.

Safety and convenience are emphasized: the crew provides hands-on assistance and handles fish cleaning and bagging.
