Mokau Beach Fishing With Kites Part 1
Kite fishing from the beach at Mokau in New Zealand. These surf fishing fanatics are casting fishing lines with up to 25 baited fish hooks one mile or more offshore. This has to be one of the most efficient fishing techniques around for catching fish for the table. The surf casting catch includes snapper, red cod, kahawai, gurnard and sharks.
@uluahunta09 hahahahahahah…you are a very smart man.

Do wind always blow from land to the sea? First time to watch how kite fishing is. We can try that thing here, very interesting ,thank you…
?
The only problem with kites is that fish fear large shadows.? Its a fish instinct to watch for shadows.
Boats cast? much bigger shadows
@paulauckland Thats why? they paint the bottom of boats white.
HI Paul,
Great video, I’ve been a surf caster for a few years but have never checked out kit fishing. I? know you guys have the link there, but could you also recommend any good books to get started?
Best,

I love this method of fishing. You can catch alot of big fish w/o wasting much time and efforts. This is great for? land based fishermen to make a little buck to sell to the locals. As far as raping the sea comment whoever posted it, I’d say lets rape it. Why not ? its there, wide opened. Go tell that to your mama you damn boy who never grew up. The ocean covers 2/3 of Earth, of all the oil spilled from the Gulf drill in the US didn’t even pollute a fraction of it. Big freaking deal.
@uluahunta09
Your mother deserve a rappping for giving birth to a dickless? lad like you.
nice video, how? far out do you have to let the line out at least?
@Tracka350 These rigs are usually set for around 20 minutes, and because they are on a running trace system the fish can still swim freely and are very much alive when? they reach shore.
thumbs up to? you guys doing this but seeing that birds nest in the line and with what all you gotta do to fish this way…i’ll stick with my rod and reel and fish the easy way.
To much? work for me…But it looks realy cool!
@uluahunta09 Ok smart ass no matter how good you are at casting you will never be able cast one mile.?
cute dog?
@lanimu808 you got a point. but notice its? overcast in the video
in the? states we call those porgy, congrats those were a couple of beauties
While I like the idea of this, there is very little finesse / skill involved in the actual catching is there. It does not rely on instinct, playing a fish, bait presentation, knowing when? to set the hook, etc…. . The technique is all in the set up and launching of the kite, but not necessarily in the art of fishing itself.
I fish to catch fish to eat. These fish are up to a mile offshore and I am landbased. If you can suggest another way of getting baited hooks that far out I would be keen to hear it.
Bait presentation with this style of fishing is crucial. You don’t get a chance to pull on the line and set the hook and fish? can take as much time as they want in stealing poorly presented baits. You have to know a raft of other little nothings to be successful with this kind of fishing.
u need 5 days to catch something?
very veryyyyyyy veryyyyyyyyyyyyy? stupid!!!! jajaj!
@paulauckland
i couldnt see how you hooked the baitted line to the kite, also i didnt see how you mounted the hooks {close up} to the? tail line that goes inside the water, if u can show how, this type of fishing needs the wind direction inside the ocean not the oposite?
