Reviews: Kaikoura Sea Fishing in South Island, New Zealand - Captain TOMO (Experienced Local Captain + Lobster Catching and Fishing at Sea)
Guest User2025-03-24
Family operation, the scene was not brought by the TOMO captain, but still caught a lot of fish. A boat of 6 groups caught a total of 3 lobsters, not the opening half but the lottery decision, I unfortunately did not draw it, it feels a pity. The sea is super swaying, it is recommended to eat dizzy waves first.

Captain Lan was incredibly patient. He's going to Vietnam for the winter, haha! Our group of four booked at 2 PM, arrived before 1 PM, and were served immediately. We ended up with 13 fish and three big lobsters, haha! Captain Lan was super patient in explaining everything and even set up two lobster nets for us.
