Amodeo Bay, New Zealand

Amodeo Bay has a fish with your name on it, so let Anglers Fishing Charters help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Dawson can tell you all about them.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Pink Snapper, Kingfish, John Dory, and anything else that bites. For these species, you're likely to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. And you can't go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

Capt. Dawson runs a 24' KwikKraft aluminum fishing boat that holds up to 5 passengers. It has all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is caught on your way out to fish.

Don't leave home without sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, weather appropriate clothing such as jackets and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, feel free. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, time to hit the water with Anglers Fishing Charters!

Amazing Amdeo Trip
Half Day Trip (PM) - 2 person rate on March 4, 20262 adults
Was an amazing time out on the water with skipper Dawson. Very light hearted warming guy to go fishing with. Very knowledgable on the area. If you're ever up this way and want to book a smaller charter group this is the place to go to. Thanks all who were involved with getting myself and my dad out on the water.
