I would recommend you go with Tauranga marine charters as the capt. is very active at chasing the fish.

Recommend Captain Brett and his deckhand and their boat Motutere. Every thing i expected of a charter was carried out. They were both extremely helpful whether preparing bait, asking everyone how thy were faring and more importantly, untangling lines during the numerous tangle ups.
Lastly i would recommend that people always take warm gear regardless of weather

Take a day on Te Kuia or Manutere(?) as an introduction. If you like it then go wider for an overnight around Mayor Island if thats your preference. Fish can be caught anywhere.

It may pay to advise clients with childrenchildren that in the lead up to Christmas there may be more 'Drinkers' than Fishermen on board. OK for adults but not so good for the 10-16 year olds.
Brett is a great Skipper and the boat well maintained and equipped were it not for the 'over imbibers' the trip would have been fantastic and we will certainly book again - just not in December!

We had a great day on Manutere and caught great fish within seconds. We got good tips from the captain and everything was well organised. Great communication as well. If we ever come back to NZ, would definitely do it again!

The trip was good despite the lack of good-sized fish. Wayne tried his best to find a good spot, but at the end of the day, we did not have much good luck on the trip. I managed to catch four descent-size snappers. So it was a good trip for me.

Not bad. We had good weather but wind and current was fighting each other and made it difficult the get onto the reefs. We had to try multiple locations before we were onto keep size fish. The travel time, although smooth, was long and limited the fishing time. The pod of dolphins we encountered was a bonus! All and all a good trip for the price.

Cheap charter that you actually catch fish on, like other more expensive charters around us were just calling it day and leaving, while we were catching fish

Me and my fiance are on a holiday in New zealand and wanted to go fishing. We stumbled upon deepstar charter and gave it a go. We had a wonderfully time, good and funny crew and very helpful.
Would totally recommend going there, we had a great day and came home with good fish.
Thanks for the great experience!

Perfect day with calm seas. Quintessential mariners Garth (Skipper) & Andy (Technical Asviser & Deck Hand) escorted us us on a day reef excursion on a well travelled character fishing launch with many a kiwiana touch. Our group of 4 +4 adults & kids had a full days top entertainment. Fish were a little elusive at times but we managed a good haul with tales that will only improve as the years roll on. Thanks a million.
