Best fishing spots in Northern Coromandel, New Zealand | Part 1

We explored the northernmost part of the Coromandel Peninsula in New Zealand. This part of the country is a true fishing paradise for rock fishing enthusiasts. Especially for targeting big snapper and kingfish.
First we went to the Pinnacles out from Fletchers Bay. This is an epic fishing spot and well worth the effort of getting there. Our second spot is called the northernmost point and it's right in between Port Jackson and Fletchers Bay.
Our next destination was Port Jackson and the reefs on both ends. Finally we checked out Fantail Bay and it's surrounding rock formations.
All in all the whole area is just brilliant for fishing. There are countless more fishing spots to explore along this cost line.

New Zealand at its finest, great video Cheers.

[@outinthebushnz]

Doesn’t get better than this does it? Bloody awesome

[@Fishingreminder]

yeah mate, love it up there

[@sydneyfishingstory]

It's beautiful

[@jamiejerry6242]

Awesome buddy I love watching your vids as you always give location ....sharing is caring ❤

[@Fishingreminder]

thanks bro, appreciate the feedback.

[@coolasfishing]

Appreciate this video bro, I plan to do a coromandel trip this year and this video will definitely help, good on you for releasing that beautiful snapper at port Jackson.

[@Fishingreminder]

thanks for the great feedback mate. It's always a good feeling releasing the big boys and watching them swim away. Those bigger snapper could be 30-40 years old. They deserve to live in my opinion, unless they are unlikely to survive the release. Hope you have a great trip to the Coro this year, exploring all these great fishing spots. 🤙

[@dhyoo2806]

beautiful interesting spot.exciting spot.

[@Fishingreminder]

It really is!

[@WekaDigitalMediaNZ]

Thanks for showing some more places I have never been too in NZ .. I don't travel far from Whakatāne to fish but look what I'm missing out on 😬some beaut kelpies and a nice release 🙂 🎣

[@Fishingreminder]

Cheers mate. We love traveling, exploring and sharing our experiences. Hopefully it inspires others to get out there. Whakatāne is such a nice place to live - so much to do around there.

[@perkar49]

We lived at Fantail Bay in the Ye Olde Stone Jug as I renovated it, fantastic fishing, my best was 26lb..Snapper. 60 lb Kingi off the rocks.

[@Fishingreminder]

How awesome it must have been living in a spot like that. Pure fishing paradise.

[@koonta6079]

I thought Lindsay renovated that place, still lives there spoke to him on side of the road 12 months ago.

[@perkar49]

@@koonta6079 He may have finished what I started, glad to hear LG still lives there, he's a good bloke, hard place to leave..great fishing off the deck & watching a bit of tv..

[@koonta6079]

@@perkar49 Good to hear, I meet Lindsay & Tania in mid 90's while staying at the camp and fishing and invited back to their place for a wild pork roast as the weather in the tent was blown in. Good people, Tania moved on years ago, Lindsay still there painted and doing artist stuff. Great location.

[@shauncummings2361]

Awesome - fantail bay is great

[@Fishingreminder]

cheers, it really is

[@loopernz]

Excellent video thanks

[@Fishingreminder]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@CrazyAboutFlyFishing]

I'm definitely going to go and check out some of these with the fly rod this summer.

[@Fishingreminder]

check out my other video about fishing spots in Golden Bay, South Island. In my opinion that's the best area to target kingfish on fly rods. You can sight fish for them in the shallows, it's amazing.

[@HighEndTroutFishing]

great view and scenery i love it :D !

[@Fishingreminder]

thanks man, you gotta come over here when this whole covid thing is over. You'd love the fishing in NZ

[@DarkmoonAngler]

nice work... and snapper too, good on ya for the release.👍

[@Fishingreminder]

thanks for the feedback mate! I watched your video about Fletcher Bay the other day. That was a stonker you got off the rocks there.

[@pipesurfer3922]

Awesome brother

[@Fishingreminder]

Cheers mate👍

[@OCEANOUTKAST]

This is on my to do list! Paradise

[@Fishingreminder]

yeah man, it's wicked fishing territory. Lots of small snapper around at the moment. I bet this place is fully firing up in March/April

[@OCEANOUTKAST]

@@Fishingreminder for sure. Oct-Nov & Mar-Apr would be the one for sure.

[@OCEANOUTKAST]

@@Fishingreminder Hey mate, ive sent you a DM on instagram.

[@Fishingreminder]

@@OCEANOUTKAST cheers man, didn't notice.

[@snappagrabba]

I'll need to check those out, maybe the kayak or drone.

[@Fishingreminder]

yeah perfect if you take a kayak. For the land based fishing spots up there you don't really need a drone. Pretty deep water straight off the points.

[@sydneyfishingstory]

Nice video very good fishing my friend

[@Fishingreminder]

Many thanks, appreciate the feedback :)

[@AdriftFishing]

Sick video bro. Subbed up 👍

[@Fishingreminder]

[@bladesofmen]

What a great video. Is there anything like this for Australia?

[@Fishingreminder]

not yet, but Australia is on our TODO list :)

[@bbadomi]

06:31 is the most surprising moment :) Big snapper is free !!

[@Fishingreminder]

Haha, yeah that was a good catch 🙂

[@alyssablake100]

I want to explore the eastern side stoney to pinnacles

[@Fishingreminder]

Stoney is awesome mate. Check out this short vid here that we did in Stoney Bay last year: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpacXpWZpsSZqrM

[@erictupu1305]

Nice video brother I like to come and have fishing with you let me know went we me up and go to fishing

[@Fishingreminder]

Cheers bro. Where r u based?

[@Nofishnoclue]

I don't understand why people blow up all their favourite spots, will just ruin it for yourselves next time,

[@matthewslatter8791]

Exactly! Hes a clown.

[@TT-yr6kt]

@@matthewslatter8791 you’re the clown mate. I don’t know why people are so discrete about it, there’s fish a plenty, it’s about sharing mate the sea is not yours. It says a lot about a person’s personality on the little things...

[@SkatersOfTheNorth]

These spots are all on google bro nz is tiny all the spots have been fished

[@Fishingreminder]

It's funny how some people think that fishing and camping spots that are regularly being featured in magazines, on TV and pretty much everywhere else are top secrets, eh.

[@evlgtz]

It’s just a few of the more well known spots of the many spots available to fish up there. It’s not all about the spot anyway, more how and when to fish them.
