Another epic fish from one of my favourite locations

Fishing remote locations are a whole new world of opportunities with Jetskifishing. The places I have fished I could only have dreamt about before I started this sport...

With experienced Jetskifisho's, I ventured to the furtherest point of the upper North Island, Cape Reinga. The scenery is breathtaking and the location has some challenges that keep the area unpressured to recreational fisherman.

My learnings from different launching over the years and local intel helped along way to making this trip possible.

Planning strategies around wind, tide, swell, made launching and retrieving achievable, as it is a extremely soft sand beach. Preparation is so important on these trips, there is no cellphone access and little VHF coverage. I prepare for all scenarios on these adventures, fishing with a mate and choosing a late model 4 stroke naturally aspirated watercraft for reliability.

This time of year, to enjoy a full day on the water in a southerly wind I wear the Sharkskin thermal clothing, no chafing, no rashes and being a two piece clothing kit, when nature calls you have no restrictions.

With a 6 hour drive, you want to be on your game and have confidence in your fishing gear, so when you hook that dream fish you can take the fight to the fish! This hook up was thanks to the Gulp White Glow Grub with the 2oz Orange Elevator Rig, these hooks are strong and have never let me down.
