Uncovering a whole new winter game fishery in Waihau Bay, New Zealand - a successful road trip to chase Southern Bluefin Tuna
Flying into Fiordland is about as close as you come to time travel. As our helicopter floated through the mist into Dusky Sound it was like we had travelled back 20,000 years....
3 days that will be etched in the memory banks for ever. Seeing the kids catch their first marlin out of Tairua.
The dream trip to Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef for Pies 40th, with all 8 boys getting into Black Marlin to 850lb
I'm just back from an awesome first ever trip to Vava'u Tonga with a great bunch of fellas! We got into Blue Marlin, sailfish, yellowfin and wahoo with Cascade Charters. What a great adventure
What a great week of game fishing with good mates! Tairua was ON this week and we came away with 2 swordfish, a crazy day that produced 3 stripeys, plus we managed 3 stripeys on 15kg, short bill spearfish and mahimahi. Good times!
Monster Hapuka and some awesome top water kingfish action have made for an awesome October of fish
Feel privilged to fish with two of Australasia's fishing legends this month. Both Australia's Andrew "ET" Ettingshausen and New Zealand's Mark Kitteridge jumped on board for media trips this month.
Every year the Nationals produces some superb game fishing, this time it was a 106kg Big Eye for old Ants! What a cool week of gamefishing including some wicked striped marlin action as well...
A once in a lifetime trip that will be etched into the memory banks forever! Big bass to 67kg, hapuka to 42kg, kingfish to 40kg, but most importantly a trip to the mecca of NZ fishing with best mates and family...
Quite possibly the craziest week of fishing ever, four very nice fellas and loads of angry kingfish, with the last day producing 100kingfish in a day - all on jigs!
When you've got an great crew, sometimes everything just falls into place. Mike and Hayley were back and in one day we had awesome kingfish jigging, shallow water soft baiting and got a nice striped marlin on jig gear! All time!
Another awesome week of fishing with good mates in this years Nationals. We managed to take out top boat in NZ for kingfish, and Ant tagged the most kingfish, plus plenty of other trophies
Opito Bay would rate as my favourite place in the world. I got to escape back there for some quality time on the water with the kids and good mate Dion over the last week
