We had a fantastic day out on the water with Murray and Terry. Two men with a wealth of knowledge of not only the local fishing but also the history of the Bay of Islands. We fished in a nice sheltered spot (very successfully!) as we watched other charters power out into rough swells only to return a short time... More

Murray and Terry made us feel at home and had the greatest spots for fishing, totally worth every cent!!...I recommend these guys to anyone, they are the cheapest for the longest trip...look no further!! Arline fishing charters is where its at!!...It sounds like an ad...Its copywritten if u use it lol...Cheers boys from Michelle, Dave "OZ" AND kYLE More

The day dawned slightly overcast, we were greated at the boat by a smiling skipper (Murray), a quick trip over to Russell to pick up the ballance of the fisho's and we were away. We took a cut lunch and drinks with us and there is plenty of clean dry storage to leave your lunch and camera etc while you... More

What a great trip! It was my brother's birthday on Feb. 23rd so all of us celebrated by fishing with Arline's and having a fish Barb-B-Q that night! The 6 of us from New York were joined by 2 Kiwis on board (Tony and Brent) and had a great time. What a wonderful day interacting with the crew and everyone... More

Murray is the best: pleasant, entertaining, and he knows how to catch these fish. The boat Captain, Jake is a fishing machine. I fished 2 days in a row with Arline. The boat is very stable (the waters in the bay are inherently stable so if you get sea sick in big swells don’t worry about it!) Murray warned us... More

I went out on a great day on the Arline. And while the fish were a little reluctant to bite in their usual large numbers/sizes on that day, the relaxed friendliness and professionalism of Murray (the owner/deckhand) and Terry (the skipper) was one of the nicest experiences of all the many fishing charters I've ever been on. And the fish... More

My wife and went out with murray and his skipper earlier this month. We picked this activity/excursion based on trip advisor reviews and were certainly not disappointed. This is definitely one of the highlights of our trip. We were fishing for smaller fish as we were using a 20lb line. The day started off slow but then picked up to... More

Arline Fishing Charter was definitely a great choice out of the many charters available at Paihia. At only $80 and 51/2 hours out on the water it was the cheapest and the longest trip on offer. The boat was comfortable and clean and all equipment was provided. Terry and Murray (Skipper and owner of the charter) made the day out... More

Great new way to fish. No more smelly bait. The Bonus was that only Big Snapper like them. Take a trip with Murray on Arline Fishing Charters and find out for yourself. The best day fishing I have ever had . The fish that we put back would normal be some of the best. Regards From the Carnell Boys More
