A chance to get out on the stunning far north waterways & chase some delicious snapper for the dinner table! The crew from Fish Bay of Islands will put you on the fish with all the right gear, then the rest is up to you!!

Snapper fishing excursions are generally within the inner bay depending on the conditions on the day.
Pilchards, squid and mackerel are the most common bait used but the odd live bait is always handy as big Snapper are quite partial to these tempting morsels.

Ledger and strayline rigs are predominantly used for this species but jigs and soft baits can also be effective for those experienced anglers keen to preserve.

Heading out with skipper with 40 years experience fishing in the Bay of Island you are on good hands. Snapper is the target on today’s expereince.

This experience is for a shared snapper fishing charter experience which will take you approximately 4.5 hours departing from Paihia Wharf.
