Hi all

I am putting together some cool trips over the next twelve months, one of which is hopefully going to be to the Wanganella banks. With the aim to tackle some of those monster kingfish lurking in the area. Rumours of kings to 70kg have are what I have heard and some of you may have seen the commercial boat recently returning with many fish over 50 kg.
Of course we will do a bit of Marlin fishing whilst out there too, how could you not.
The trip may already be pretty full up but I am not sure yet and there is the possibility that two trips will happen yet.

The other trip I am planning is a stick baiting mission to White Island in the prime surface time to fish there, this trip will be primarily focused on stick baiting. One of the main aims is to test out the night time stick baiting when the flying fish turn up, pretty sure it will be chaos. I will be on board to do some tutorial work on how to stick bait, teach some knots and whatever else I can help with.
Please Pm if your keen

Cheers Mark

White Island we looking at 20 to 21 December
Overnighter obviously to do the flying fish.
Looking like the wanganellas trip is chocka, plenty of interest there for that one.
The wanganellas is not the only remote destination out there with giant kings too, for those adventurous types keep in touch as I may look at putting things together for some new and exciting locations.
