Thanks mate. Visitor from Ireland here and threw a telescopic rod in the bag before i got on the plane. Turns out freshwater license is $37 a day so will try sea instead at Wellington tomorrow instead. Info great
Thank you for this, off to wellington for a little break and will definitely try out few of these spots in in the next few days. Legend 🙌. Happy New Year too bro. Tight lines
Nice vid ! Left Wellington 2 years ago to go back to France, I'm missing fishing there. Tarakena bay is great , fishing with ledger rig for tarahiki there is tons of them but I prefer fishing under a float with burley to bring big kahawai , worth trying livebaiting as well , lots of barracuda there but also kingies in late season (April/may/June).
thanks for the video! used to live in welling ton in the 80s. brought back memories. was a bit of a wharf rat. main haunts were overseas terminal(clyde quay), interisland wharf(is this still accessible?) and miramar wharf. Snapper were pretty rare in those days, looks like they have come back to healthy levels. there was also a rusty old floating dock at the picton ferry terminal which was a cool location to fish - anyone recall that?
cheers Peter. Yeah the snapper fishing is really good now, eh - and also very good for kingfish. I'm surprised that snapper were rare back in the 80's - could it be the warmer sea temperatures or do you think it was just overfishing back then.
Until I made the video I didn't really realise that Wellington is the second windiest city in the world. According to wikipedia it's actually the windiest city by average windspeed. I just suspected maybe it's the windiest in the pacific. Anyhow it's an awesome place and so much fishing territory to explore.
@@OCEANOUTKAST I think you're right. Early I was reading somewhere that it is in second place. I think it was after Chicago. Can't find this article anymore. LOL Everywhere I look now it ranks as #1 So it really must be the windiest city on earth. How cool is that?

@@Fishingreminder when I googled, it said Wellington was 1 of 5 most windiest city’s in the world. I think it came out as #1 😅
