Mokohinau Islands (The Mokes) Fishing Charters
Reel in big fish on this big adventure
The Mokohinau Islands are one of New Zealand’s most remote and rewarding fishing destinations. Sitting northeast of the Hen and Chicken Islands and on the edge of deep ocean trenches, the “Mokes” offer exceptional snapper and kingfish action. These offshore islands are a dream location for anglers chasing bigger fish, clearer water, and true adventure away from the crowds.
Our private Mokohinau Islands fishing charters take you straight to the heart of this offshore fishery. We target the rocky pinnacles and drop-offs where kingfish school up and hunt. Large snapper are commonly caught in the shallows and deeper reef systems, and seasonal pelagic species like tuna and even marlin can make an appearance. Whether you’re jigging, live-baiting, soft-baiting, or top-water casting, the Mokes deliver fast-paced fishing and a real chance at a personal best.
