Donna Seiga5.0VerifiedSuper fun morning trout fishing
2 Hour Trip – Bay Fishing • 4 adults • 1 childWe spent two hours with the Skipper Richard who was brilliant. Very friendly and informative and made the experience one we will remember forever. We were very lucky to have a perfect morning on the lake in June and there were plenty of trout to catch - more than we needed so started releasing them. Most amazing quality trout too, super pink flesh. We couldn’t have asked for a better skipper than Richard, he was a real character and great with our two kids. Thanks for a fantastic trout fishing experience that we will never forget. Highly recommend!

2 Hour Trip – Bay Fishing • 2 adultsLiam was awesome with lots of date changes due to the cyclone and weather events. My husband and stepson had an absolute blast with Richard when they finally got to go out. Highly recommend, awesome time
Lindon Jackson5.0VerifiedFamily fishing fun
2 Hour Trip – Bay Fishing • 4 adults • 2 childrenWe went for a 2 hour chartered fish with Liam. Our family of 4 easily fitted on the 6.2m boat and was great to have it to ourselves. Caught 3x trout and was a great experience. My son (7) is just getting into fishing and was keen as to wind them in. Liam looked after us well and was at ease doing his thing:) would highly recommend!

What's biting with Pinnacle Charters in Taupo
Other smaller lakes open up for fishing around October, making it a great time to explore fisheries like Lake Otamangakau and lake Kuratau for the great opportunities they offer.
