How good are winter work ups in the Hauraki Gulf! With an intense work up of Australasian Gannets and Common Dolphins all to our own, this Ultimate Charters group was treated to some of the best snapper and kingfish lure action you could dream of. Immediately below the surface baitfish were being harassed by hundreds of marauding kingfish and torpedoing gannets, and if you could sneak your lure past the ravenous kingies, trophy snapper lay waiting to have their turn. Our new boat MV Gatherer is loaded with the latest and greatest Simrad electronics and without question the Simrad Halo24 radar played a key role in our success.
