Questions and answers
Is Local Knowledge Fishing free to use?
Public species profiles, location pages and standard guides are free to read. Optional Pro tools and premium guides are paid products, with prices and terms shown before checkout. Affiliate links may earn us a commission; advertising may appear where enabled.
Who writes the content on this site?
Brent Davies maintains the site. Articles combine published fishing information, source references and practical planning guidance; they should not be treated as first-hand reports unless explicitly identified as such. Dated guides show their latest update, and corrections are welcome.
Do you offer guided fishing trips?
We are not a charter operator. Our charter directory includes trip information and booking enquiries, and some listings offer online deposit reservations. Confirm availability, inclusions, cancellation terms and the operator's credentials before paying. Directory inclusion is not a personal endorsement.
Are your gear recommendations paid placements?
Comparisons use published specifications, manufacturer information and available retail information. They are not presented as hands-on or laboratory tests unless the page documents that testing. Some outbound retail links are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. See our affiliate disclosure for full details.
Can I submit a catch report or correct an error?
Absolutely. Email us and we will review it. Corrections to regulations, seasons or location details are especially welcome — fisheries rules change and we want the site to stay accurate.
Do your pages replace official fisheries regulations?
No. Size limits, bag limits, closed seasons and protected zones change regularly and vary by state. Always confirm current rules with your state or territory fisheries authority before fishing.
Can I advertise on Local Knowledge Fishing?
Yes. We work with tackle brands, charter operators and tourism bodies. Email us for a current media kit and available placements.
