Slight change to our prices, doing a 4 hour trip this is for kids or casual fishing just near Mana the bridge and surrounding reefs $800 group or $160 a head. Going near Hunters Vern’s or places like that will be the 6 hour trip $900 the boat or $180 a head then the full day which can be groper as well or just more spots and time for a free dive maybe is $1200 the boat we take 5 people 4 is better we can take 6 if it’s with kids or smaller people and there is a weight limit of approx 600 kg in total for safety reasons. All the tackle and bait is included.We was out yesterday we caught tarakihi trevally snapper kahawai and gurnard one of the better days lately fish have been a bit off or just not there. Tuna being caught now but always a gamble.

Headed out today calm and cloudy couldn’t see land. Fishing is picking up we had a good catch of tarakihi fish up to 4 kg and 58 cm nice, and a couple of snapper lost a groper it swallowed the trace and we saw it’s rasp marks on the line play those big fish on light traces nice and easy.

The silly season is starting up 😄 the weather is improving and there’s only so many available days for fishing before Christmas, we have some weekdays available. Just a heads up if you are thinking of a booking there are a lot of people enquiring now so it’s first come with a deposit first served I can wait a day if you need to get sorted but after that I will just book in anyone who can commit there and then.Our deposits are non refundable if you pull out but are refundable or reschedule if I cancel due to weather or anything, most people get that but some don’t, I will be posting some single spots soon cheers 👍Neil
