New Zealand Fishing

[Snapp]

I will be in Australia and New Zealand in June if all goes well. Anyone have a charter recommendations?

I am working on setting up something with capt. tim of http://www.traditioncharters.com/

Not sure if the geography of my trip will work out but I am trying.

Also whats hot that time of year? I'm hoping for marlin.....

Snapp,

For NZ fishing, e-mail John Kimberley @ marlin@fishingpro.co.nz

He has a company that amalgamates bookings, charters, boats and fishing. He'll sort you something out. Say I sent you.

June is a bit late for the general season, but the big boats that travel to the Three Kings will still be catching some fish - it will differ from year to year, but you may be in with a chance.

For OZ fishing, you could do no better than ask Peter Pakula for recommendations - pakula@bigpond.net.au He's just started posting here on the forums so maybe he might be happy to help. Again, say I sent you. I think you may be in with a long shot of a blue off the Gold and Sunshine coasts. It will be autumn time, so cross fingers.
