Wildcat fishing charter testimonials - fish with the best!

Had a great day, assorted species and great weather.

Caught many fish & kept a few! Looking forward to trying them tonight on the BBQ. Beautiful weather, a perfect Saturday morning. Thanks to Leigh who made us extremely welcome & taught us a thing or two as well! Sarah & Chris, Isle of Man.
David & Pete, Mich & Paddy, caught a bag limit of good Blue Cod, a dozen school shark, a 'couda, umpteen perch and 1 Tarakihi! A great time had by all and Leigh was a great skipper - spent longer at sea to ensure the load of cod. Would recommend the charter to anyone! Thanks Leigh.

Wonderful day our kids had a ball, caught loads of fish, Leigh is so pleasant & very professional, excellent time.

We had such a great day with Leigh and Michelle at Wildcat Charters today. Patient, knowledgeable, welcoming - a great day all around and to top it off - lots of fish. Totally recommend. Ngā mihi!

Thankyou Leigh, we all had a fantastic time (even me!) Lots of fish and a great selection too. Wonderful views of Golden Bay. Vert interesting from the water, a new perspective. A great day out thanks for taking such great care of us. I'll enjoy the blue cod that I caught. Fresh fish yum!

Captains Log: Star Trek.....(jokes)
Early morning start, Golden Bay turned on the works for us, brilliant sunrise, calm waters, great skipper. Catching fish straight away, perch, cod, shark - spotty dog & sand variety, kahawai & snapper. Just the newly-weds & the skipper onboard, 4 rods going, all calm one minute "nek minnit" all 4 rods blazing. Tremendous fishing, first time on the mainland, definitely not the last.
Went trawling for kahawai, they were jumping on our hooks, non-stop action. Leigh sees a flare go off. Immediately we set off to investigate. Two people on a boat which doesn't start & a friend diving they haven't seen for over an hour. We set off to look for the friend, we find him on a rock surrounded by seals. He gets rescued. We go to his friends tie them up and tow them back to port.
Fresh fish for lunch, oh for sure! Great Day Fishing - everyone back home is going to hear about Wildcat Charters & hopefully some of them come down. Thanks, Leigh for a great day!!

We were very impressed with Wildcat Charters fishing trip. From the safety instructions given by Leigh at the start right through to the expertly filleted fish, it was truly an experience. The boat was well presented, very comfortable and well equipped. We were also offered tea/coffee and biscuits. The fishing was great with a wide variety caught. Leigh and his crew were on hand to offer expert advice with baiting and removing fish which was done efficiently, ensuring the fish which was not of size and quota returned to the sea unharmed.

Great trip, great day, caught shark, cod kingfish, tuna.

Wow fantastic trip, right from the start, great fishing wonderful captain, thank you Leigh, good company & lots of kai for tea! Will definitely be back Thanks heaps. P.S. was my first time ever fishing brilliant experience! (Ali).

Awesome fishing trip. After getting off to a slow start we had a very successful fishing trip catching a 5kg shark among other things. Really good skipper v.professional with regards to health and safety. We were lucky it was quiet so there were only 2 of us on the trip. All our catches were filleted for us so we could take them away and put them straight on the bbq. It was our first time fishing and we were really chiffed with what we got. Deffo recommend to others.

A great morning, cod, terakihi, gurnard & a 1 hour battle with a 20+ lb shark - the shark won - the line broke. We will be back for another battle next year! Thanks Leigh.
