Hi Guys, New to this forum but was wondering if anyone knows if you can catch Moki up this way (Wanganui-Taranaki). Caught a few in my Wellington days but not sure if they are found this far north on the west coast. Cheers

Dodd. You have some really good beaches in that area. Nothing I have seen around there would be suitable for moki. They tend to dry up in any numbers south of Te Horo on the west from my experience and then the snapper fishing gets better. Try contacting the Fielding surfcasting club. Elliot on here is in that club too. Their boundary is right up to Patea I believe? You could try shellfish baits around Waitotara area for moki? Not sure how productive it would be.

have not heard of moki being caught in the area, as Jase has said further south or on the east coast is best, you are in some of the best snapper fishing area in NZ- boat and surfcasting, I fish the area alot and do very well, alot of grot sharks(rig) are around at the moment with them being caught up to 18 lb in some areas, the snapper are there as well just need to target them,

Thanks guys. Once this swell drops hope to get a line or two out. Looking forward to hooking into a decent Grot shark. Hey Jase, you not originally from Wellington are you???
