We offer 3 different types of boat fishing:

  • Bottom fishing : We anchor the boat over a good fishing spot X and catch fish that feed close to the sea bed in dephts of 15 to 100 metres. The main target species are snapper, terakihi, garnard, kahawai, kingfish and hapuka. Suits all ages and levels of experience. All fishing gear provided.
  • Game fishing : Our season runs from December to March. Most of our fish are caught trolling lures or live baiting, our main target gamefish is Tuna, Albacore, Skipjack and Yellow-fin. Some seasons there are nice Yellow-Fin Tuna feeding in Hawke Bay. The 2004/2005 season produced 3 Hawkes Bay Sport Fishing Club records on yellow-fin, the heaviest being 72.8 kg. There was also about 7 marlin weigh in that season.
  • Saltwater Fly fishing: Cast a fly from the boat into a big work up of kahawai or tuna. An absolute blast when hooked up, lots of patience needed. kahawai and Tuna are very good eating fish, so we can fillet a few up for you to take home. Suits half day charter.
