FISHING REPORT
Hi there, welcome to our local Northland fishing report.
BOAT: Game fishing has been a bit patchy at times. Plenty of striped Marlin being caught N/E of the Knights in around 180-250m of water. Also there has been plenty of skipjack tuna around, great bait for the winter, well worth stocking up.
HARBOUR: Fishing has been very good for Snapper this year, with plenty of people getting a feed of 30-45cm Snapper from Limestone Island to the No.7 buoy. Plenty of berley getting the bigger snapper to bite has been the way with reports of snapper up to 20lb being caught.

Gulp New Penny Grubs are now in stock!!
In our experience the New Penny colour particularly in the 6" grub has been very successful. The vivid tall action seems to work very well and with the grub body having no cavity the bait lasts a lot longer and represents very good value for money.
When placing the jig head in the lure try making sure the tail is facing up and we suggest a 5/0 hook or bigger on these softbaits. Try a variety of techniques, we find either casting ahead of the boat, or dropping the softbait directly behind the boat on the drift seems to work well. The New Penny works well over the sand or on the edges of reefs.
