A true professional!
Full Day Trip offshore on November 19, 20252 adults

I had the absolute pleasure of fishing an 8 hour charter with Fish n Dips. Skipper Roy is an absolute beauty! I had never tried stick baiting before. Roy taught me how to cast, work the stick bait and after a couple hours of honing my skills i was able to catch a 35-40lb Kingfish completely on my own. Roy netted it of course! If I ever get back to Auckland, Roy and I will fish again! Amazing day!

Full Day Trip offshore on March 2, 20252 adults

Fish n dips is very stable and fast boat that brings you rapidly in the fishing zones. Captain Roy is fishing here for a long time and he knows exactly where you have to go, depending on the weather, the stream and water temperature. He is very patient and provides you with all the tuition you need to have a good fishing day, even with the music you might have on board ! We had great fun with him.
