My daughter & I had a very enjoyable 3 hours fishing with Marty just after Easter ... a perfect host in every respect, very personable, great to talk with ... all the necessary equipment & assistance you could wish for and a perfectly sized boat (even if we had another 2 or 3 on board there was plenty of space). The weather was fantastic & the fish were hungry - certainly beyond our control but simply added to the positively pleasant memories we’ll always have of our trip. Thank You!!!

This was an absolute fantastic experience especially for my husband and I who are beginners (never gone fishing before) Marty was patient and very friendly - explained to us how to set up, and what each equipment was for. We caught quite a lot of trout but decided to take home 4 to smoke and for dinner :) Not to mention, lake Taupō is simply breathtaking! Would highly recommend Marty and this experience to everyone.

Captain Marty and his boat are top shelf - he was friendly, informative, and clearly knew what he was doing….after only 30 minutes of not catching any fish, he made some adjustments and we ended up with more fish than we could eat!  Everyone in the boat caught one….then he cleaned and packaged them up for us, including some recipe suggestions.  Highly recommend!!!

We caught so many frish we couldn’t believe it. And it seemed we had the lake to ourselves for the first 2 hours.  Marty even took us out to see the Maori rock carvings which was very special. It was a wonderful experience not only fishing but watching the weather shape shift around the late. From mist to rain to sunshine.  All in all a very worth while morning.

Always awesome to fish with locals that know the lake and gear needed. Caught 5 and 2 nice keepers! Go with Marty and you won’t be disappointed.
