Auckland/Waikato | Location: Coarse fishing is present in most lakes north of Hamilton, including Lake Pupuke and Hamilton Lake. This is the only region where you can fish for rudd as well as tench and perch. The following are designated as coarse fishing waters:

Please check the Auckland/Waikato Regulations for the river or lake you plan to fish. Bag limit: You must not kill more than 5 tench in a day. There is no limit for perch or rudd. |
