Awesome time out on the water.
5/5
We had a great time thanks to Captain Bucko. The weather was a bit sketchy so he anchored up in a sheltered spot. Next thing we knew it was raining snapper!

The best family fun fishing day
5/5
We had such a great family day on the water with Ross and Harley. We caught lots of fish, our kids (15 and 12) loved it and so did we. Ross and Harley were so patient and helpful. Totally recommend 👌 👍

excellent family outing today
5/5
First time taking my family fishing for kingfish and was satisfied with how Paul provided a warm welcome and showcased his professionalism to the highest standard especially putting us on the kingfish within ten minutes of fishing.
We went home satisfied with all the fish we caught.
We would not think twice about booking with Paul again if we decided to go fishing again.

If you wanted to go fishing and catch fish for tea I would 100% recommend Target charters of Paihia Ross and his deck hand made fishing real easy when they put the bait on my hook and took the fish off the hook every time thank you Ross
