Plan your next fishing charter aboard the MV Manutere out of Tauranga, Bay of Plenty, NZ.

October continues to have excellent weather and the fishing’s been  good too.

We’ve continued working around Motiti, with the fish anywhere between 50 and 80m. Two good days midweek with mainly tarakihi coming up.

Saturday had too much SE wind but it was calm and settled by Sunday, which fished well initially, then slowed up, so we went to my never fail spot, where, naturally, we barely caught a fish. We then came back to a bit of foul we’d run over with some sign on it and ended up with a heap of tarakihi, red snapper, 2 legal kingies and  a 6/7kg snapper, which was caught by a 10 year old.

So, pretty good and reconfirming that inconsistency is the only constant with fishing.

WHAT OUR FANTASTIC CLIENTS SAY

  • Just a quick email to thank you for a nice fishing trip today. Very enjoyable. Weather was kind to us and everyone caught fish.

    Hopefully will return to the Mount again next year, in which case I will check you out for another trip.

  • Dear Daphne and Brett.

    I wanted to write to you to acknowledge what a great fishing charter you are running on board  the manutere. We have been on numerous  trips with you lately, and always returned home with fish,after having a great day out with Brett. We have found Brett to be very knowledgeable,friendly and always keen for a laugh. we have been on many different charters over the years, and the manutere rates very highly.

    Ironically, I own my own boat, yet love a day out on the manutere. 

    Keep up the great work. Look forward to seeing you next time!

    Kind regards,

    Shane Janssen
