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 available but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect. 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!

Captain Dawson is a expert fisherman. He knows very well his fishing spot. I just want to suggest to mention in the website that we have to bring our chilling bin to keep and bring back home our fishes.
