First we went to three locations to retrieve cages with crayfish(NZ lobsters). Most exciting experience during the whole trip! Even caught a small shark in the cage but let it go. Had to measure each one to keep the bigger ones. Sustainable fishing! Second part was to sail further to the ocean for fishing. Quite tiring job for first... More

We fully support that crayfish babies and lay eggs female should be released to the nature. If we have one or two more chances to check another cages, some suitable sizes of crayfish might be find for us. The sizes of boat is relative small if comparing with my last trip in 2018.

I personally didn’t attend the trip today but my partner and his brothers did. They returned to Christchurch over the moon about their time out on the boat today. They had an extremely great time so much fun,very sick haha. Captain Malcom was a breeze to contact and always responded fast, the guys had a blast today so thank you so much! They will definitely be back.
