What anglers said about John Dory Fishing in Bay Of Islands
This is not the best time of year for fishing in the Bay of Islands but it was still a great morning out on the water, and we did bring home dinner. For lots of fish, probably another time (not New Year's peak) better.

Get an experienced captain and look to have a period of tide rising to get best chance of success.

Derek used his knowledge of the area and his expertise for us to achieve our goal of catching a nice sized fish , as well as a few others.
I would recommend Derek to any angler coming to Paihia for the first time.
