From the shore you can fish anywhere from 500 yards to a half miIt’s all the rage in Kiwi-land. It catches fish – BIG fish like nothing else you’ve ever tried. It is so unique you’ll say, “I never would have thought of that”. What’s all the talk about? A technique that can get you more and BIGGER fish than ever before, that's what. And here it is ...

Flying a kite.

“Excuse me?”

Yep. You read it right. Along the coasts of New Zealand, surrounding small islands and portions of Australia as well, savvy fishermen are using – you got it – none other than kites to hook not only more fish, but much bigger fish. The technique is “childishly” simple in concept. From the beach you attach a multi-hook dropper rig to a three foot or larger wingspan kite. The line comes back down to your rod and reel. Winds carry the kite and your rig out far beyond the distance you’d ever be able to cast. From the shore you can fish anywhere from 500 yards to a half mil

Winds carry the kite and your rig out far beyond the distance you’d ever be able to cast. From the shore you can fish anywhere from 500 yards to a half mile or more out.
