OK.  Had a response from Bay Fishing charters re a trip to 3 Kings in April on Nimble2

I want a group of 8 max

Cost for boat is $7500 + GST incl bait and ice leaving Mongonui or houhora. (No food)

So if we allow $1500 for 5 days inclusive of food and travel, would be a great trip and affordable

Names wanted
First in with deposit get 1st choice( have 2-3 already keen)
I will be booking dates in the next few days as i want specific moon periods
Add your names below if interested

Cheers
Kevin

Three keen here.

What do you think about 6 days though, 5 days doesn't give much room for error with the weather, we only got 1 days fishing fishing last time I was up there on a 5 day trip

Agree. 4day trip is $6 with additional days at 1.5K+ GST, this is just an initial search to see who is interested.
I will be paying a deposit to book the boat anyway as soon as i have dates set

Aprils a good month at the kings,last year the marlin were long gone but the kingies were absolutly nsane,if you leave from monganui theres a safe place to leave cars @ $10 per day,she will pick you up and drop you off as well
