We take it for granted, but Niue is legendary among fishermen.
Several operators run established, safe & reliable charters & the deep water is easily accessible so you’ll spend most of your time fishing, not travelling.
Our distance from any other major land-mass & the wide range of in-shore fish combine to attract the the ‘big ones’ fishermen dream of.
There are even some Fish Attraction Devices (FADS) within easy distance & they provide you with the chance to really test your gear, your resolve & your muscles. If you’re up to it, of course.
Big fish like Wahoo, or Paala as we call it, can strike your line at up to 78 km/hr – they have sharp teeth that mesh together like overgrown pinking shears so wire tracers are essential.
Tuna and marlin are often caught, and the deep waters hide all sorts of surprises.
