How to Find Fishing Spots

Sep 6, 2024 | fishing.net.nz | Pete Jones

Our mate Laurie runs a very interesting fishing contest from Coromandel each year. It’s a two-day, softbaiting-only, kayak-fishing-only, three-species contest. Overall prizewinning depends on the longest combined length of your best one of each of snapper, kahawai, and trevally. If you miss out on even one of the species you’re unlikely to be in the first 10. And last year, a record 15% of the entrants managed to measure one of each of the species. Usually, it’s not that many.
