White Striker Charter specializes in fishing for Trout on the world-famous Lake Taupo in New Zealand. Captain Richard Staines has over three decades of charter experience on Lake Taupo and knows about everything that makes for a fun and productive fishing trip. He is happy to welcome both beginners and more experienced anglers aboard.
You will be fishing on a 32’ Genesis cruiser that’s outfitted with a 250 HP Hyundai engine and has plenty of space for up to eight anglers to fish in comfort. Apart from all the necessary safety and navigation gear, the boat has a private head, full kitchen facilities, and a fridge/freezer as well. The boat is designed to be suited for fishing in all weather conditions, so feel free to book at any time you like.
Lake Taupo is heaven for Trout fishing, and what better way to do it than with Taupo’s most experienced charter operator. Jigging and trolling with downriggers are the main techniques used by Captain Richard to get you on the fish. Three-hour trips are the standard fare when it comes to fishing Lake Taupo, but longer trips can also be arranged and different departure times.
The price of a trip includes rods, reels, and terminal tackle, as well as the cleaning and bagging of your catch after the trip. 24-hour fishing licenses are now brought online with (Dept of Conservation) DOC Taupo fishing licenses. Adult $23.00 Child $5.00. I'll help you when you board the boat if you wish. Take along a pair of polarized sunglasses and some snacks if you’re so inclined and the adventure can begin. Sorry no pay wave. Due to increased fuel cost any trip to the carvings there is a $50.00 surcharge.

what can i sat excellent 3 hour trip with a very experienced captain lots of history of the lake and surrounding topography . managed to catch 3 rainbow trout very happy will book again when i return 😀
Miserable gloomy day - caught 2 fish. Captain tried everything to try to catch more. Wasnt to be - but great day and good memories made with family. Second trip on this boat - will bookagain.
We are a group of 6 but 4 of us were fishing. The trip started on time with the introduction and safety messages. We were shown how to release the rigg into the water and explained how the system works. We caught enough to bring home and released a few. The captain took good care of us till we returned to the berth.
It is the first time we go fishing. The Captain is great and tells us a lot of knowledge of fishing. We caught fish, and 12-year-old boy just wanted more time!
Richard was a great skipper, we caught lots of fish and had a great time. Thank you.
