Join them on board their boat, a 35’ offshore sport fisherman with a special V hull specifically designed for the waters off of New Zealand. It can comfortably hold up to 8 anglers, fishing at the same time. The boat is powered by a Cummins 410hp engine, giving it more than enough power to get you to your fishing grounds in no time. There’s a full-head toilet on board for comfort on longer trips.

Running angling trips out of Paihia, Andy Mcgaughey Sportsfishing invites you to check out the local fishery in style.

An avid angler since childhood, Capt. Hamish has always been passionate about fishing. He fished commercially before dedicating his life to running charters, and so knows exactly what it takes to attract and land the biggest fish out there. Along with his first mate, he promises to use all his skills and expertise to make sure you get what you want out of your trip with him.

Yellowtail Kingfish, Snapper, Hapuka, Silver Trevally, Striped Marlin, Skipjack Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Swordfish, and more can be found in these waters, depending on conditions. You’ll target your catch by light tackle fishing, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
