I can’t speak highly enough of Marty. I went out with my mum, we caught 5 keepers and 12 fish overall in what were less than ideal weather conditions. Marty was very personable and gave great historical insights regarding Lake Taupo.

Marty was a great guy, got us on the fish, boat kept us dry, the 3 hr trip was perfect for my wife and I. Bonus to see the Maiori rock carvings, even a duck stopped by to wish us luck!  5 nice fish, eating 2 and smoking 3 for later!

Marty was a great guide.He explained his fishing method in detail. He trolls with downriggers.We caught heaps of nice rainbow trout 1-2 kg. We kept 2 and ate them at a restaurant Vine in town. Highly reommend this Charter to all fishos.
