    Awesome experience

    Half Day Trip - Trout Fishing (AM)4 adults

    We had a great time and Nicks fishing knowledge and expertise led to us going home happy fishers. We had a perfect morning fishing, no luck at first but we were surprised with double hookups a few times. Nick had a busy time garhing lines and fish. His boat, Bravado 3, was very spacious and comfortable for our group of four. Anyone of any age would enjoy the experience and we have no hesitation recommending the addition of a fishing charter with Nick to their itinerary. A great experience all round!! Nick even cleaned out catch for us which wasn't expected but greatly appreciated. Cheers Nick!!

    Beautiful day on the lake!

    Half Day Trip - Trout Fishing (PM)6 adults

    Thank you for a wonderful day! Cap’n Nick was the perfect fishing guide. The boat was clean and comfortable and even had a bathroom. We were out on the lake for 3 hrs and had perfect weather. Our boys loved reeling in the large trout. We caught 5 trout which Nick cleaned up for us. We took them back to our apartment and cooked up a feast. Thank you for a memorable experience! Highly recommend!!

    Magical Two Hours on Lake Taupo

    Catch & Go (PM)2 adults1 child

    What a wonderful way to spend a couple of holiday hours on the lake with my granddaughter. She caught her first rainbow trout within minutes of the lines going down and she was so delighted. Our skipper, Nick, knew where to go and how to get the rainbows to bite. We caught quite a few between us, returning the smaller ones so they can grow bigger, but we still went home with a few decent feeds in the bin. Can’t thank Nick enough for his skill and efforts and for a very comfortable boating/fishing experience.
