Western Coromandel Fishing Report 070319

  • General Saltwater, Coromandel/Waikato

I'm going to start by saying that the past few weeks here on in the northern Coromandel has been crazy - one minute the snapper are feeding strong and aggressively, the next minute it's hard even to get a nibble... So moving around and using the sounder has been the key to putting our Fishos on the big reds, cracking four solid snapper over 20lb mark, all four caught with our little friends live jack mackerel, and only a stones throw from the shore...

Kingies, on the other hand, are just smashing everything like usual, from dead baits to livebaits, even getting the odd one taking small snapper when you are retrieving them. This is so much fun when using the light gear we provide on Anglers Lodge ll.

The water is a little down in temp, reading 20-22 around the island but only 18-20 up the top at Cape Colville.

Tight lines.
