There is nothing more exciting than a day on the water fishing. It's relaxing, exciting, a good way to get some sun with friends and very rewarding when you land that big catch. You might have seen a fishing show on TV or just took a few people at work, talking about his last trip, but if you are new to the sport, it's hard to know where to start. Fortunately, in New Zealand, we have a number of opportunities for you to try your hand at casting a line and go for the big one.
Introduction - Big Game Fishing in Auckland
If you're just in the sport and do not know where to start, rent a boat could be the best way to start when picking up the basics of fishing. Auckland Harbour and the Hauraki Gulf north to Great Barrier Island has many great opportunities facing snapper, mackerel, tuna and marlin all inhabit the waters. Fantastic fishing spots are easily accessible by boat and experienced guides who run charter operations can help you find the perfect place to cast your line and work with you on your technique.
Basic Tips
Use of rod
The basic tool of any trip (apart from the boat!) Is the bar you will use to try to capture your shots. In a standing position, you want to be holding the bar with the weakest hand at the top of the front handle, the final against his hip. Your strong hand should be left free to manipulate the reel handle.
Prepare
A gimbal fishing pad is commonly used to cushion the rod against the hip - you probably want to catch one normally take 20 minutes or sometimes even hours of debate on the terrace if the fish is large enough.
Remember, the more you hold the bar, the weight for the fight and allow easier it will win.
Take your time
You do not have to be coiled-coil and keep the ship afloat - take your time and let the fish come to you instead of trying to force too. The more you fight, the more you struggle the less you will end up on the bridge.
Start with a quality guide that can show you the ropes and learn the basics for the first time in the water. Fishing can be very rewarding and when you get good at it, it is almost everything you do for holidays and weekend getaways.
