Welcome to the site of the Taranaki Kayak Fishing Club.
Our aim is to encourage a social and fun fishing club for surfcasters and kayak fishermen
and to promote these sports in a positive way. The club actively runs events such as fishing competitions,
club days and social activities. We are also the host of the Taranaki Kayak Fishing Classic
http://www.kayakfishingclassic.org.nz/ , the biggest kayak fishing competition in NZ.
Check out the photos page for a taste of the kind of fish you can expect fishing the Taranaki area.
