Ramp Infrastructure & Facility Report

Located at the King Ash Bay Fishing Club precinct off Batten Road, 50km downstream from Borroloola on the McArthur River, King Ash Bay NT 0854. Managed by King Ash Bay Fishing Club and DIPL NT. Features a high-capacity dual-lane concrete boat launch ramp equipped with a central floating boarding pontoon jetty. Positioned in deep river waters, providing safe all-tide launching for all vessel sizes targeting McArthur River Barramundi and the Sir Edward Pellew Group of Islands. Facilities feature an extensive bitumen car-and-trailer carpark, public restrooms, stainless-steel fish cleaning station, vessel wash-down bay, fishing club bar/dining, marine fuel sales, and campground amenities. Free public launch access.

Pre-Launch Fuel & Donut Defense

Wasting $150 on fuel and fresh bait to run into dead water is an embarrassing donut. Strike Club translates local water flow, tidal turnaround, and atmospheric pressure into one simple call: If it is green, hook up the trailer. If it is red, stay in bed.
