It's hard to find a good reason not to charter a boat in Auckland and enjoy some deep sea fishing. The city is not known as the City of Sails for nothing and there is plenty to do and enjoy out on the water, especially if you've got a good crew of friends to come out with you. Even if you don’t catch the big one, nothing can beat the sensation of casting your line out and enjoying the sights and sounds of the ocean. There are some plentiful fishing locations around Auckland including Whangaparaoa Peninsula, Waitemata Harbour and the Hauraki Gulf. With the assistance of a professional saltwater fishing guide, you won’t have to waste precious time out on the water searching for the best spots. Fish species found in Auckland’s waters include Snapper, Trevally, Kahawai, John Dory, and Yellow Tail Kingfish. Your charter boat guide will have an excellent knowledge of each of these species and advice about catching them. Most charters also cover food and beverages. If you want to self cater when you charter a boat in Auckland, you may need to ask if this will incur an additional charge. This is a common practice with many boat charters around the Auckland region. When arranging to charter a boat in Auckland you will need to consider the size of your fishing group and how long you wish to be out on the water. The more people you can encourage to come along, the lower the overall cost each person has to contribute to hire the vessel. A bigger fishing group basically means more time out on the water, unless the costs involved are not an issue. Of course if you prefer to go alone but can’t afford a full day, there are half day and three quarter day options available. If you are an avid fisherman you will probably prefer to take you own equipment, but if you are chartering a boat in Auckland with some newbie fishermen, make sure that there is equipment supplied for them to use. This also saves you having to lug extra equipment aboard. Whether you head out alone with a guide, or with a group of friends, make the most of it. Escape out of the city and enjoy the lapping of the waves against the boat and the wild open sky above you. I wonder if you will score the big catch of the day.
