Hawkes Bay & Gisborne Drift Boat Fishing

Glenn Beach

Go Fish Kiwi offers an unforgettable raft fishing experience on some of the best rivers in New Zealand’s North Island.

Raft fishing gives you the unique advantage of accessing remote, pristine locations that are difficult to reach by foot, allowing us to cover more water in a single day. These off-the-beaten-path rivers are rarely fished, meaning the fish are less pressured and more eager to bite.

Using an oar-powered raft, we navigate the river while you relax and take in the breathtaking scenery, all while waiting for the next great riffle, pool, or drop-off to hop out of the raft and fish. Our expert knowledge spans iconic rivers like the Mohaka, Rangitikei, TukiTuki, Ruamahunga, Whakapapa, and many more.

Your guide, Glenn “Beachy,” is a qualified Grade 3 raft guide with swiftwater rescue training and certification. Go Fish Kiwi also undergoes independent safety audits by Adventure Mark and holds Outdoor First Aid certification, ensuring a safe and enjoyable adventure for all.
