Softbaits Catching More Twenty Pounders!
Summer is here and in New Zealand everyone knows of someone who is Jetskifishing or looking at getting started in the sport. The reality is, you can spend the money on purchasing a ski but that still won't guarantee you catching fish. Rigging the ski properly, using proven gear and educating yourself about the sport will have you closer to catching fish. In recent weeks I was approached by Wai Not Tourism who operate Jet-ski Tours, who were eager to expand their Jet-ski tour business in the Bay of Islands to include Jetskifishing guiding. I appreciated the opportunity to supply them with all their necessary fishing equipment along with me teaching their guides how to softbait. The paid two day course also included 5 hours of... See what we have been catching! Happy New Year, we have been enjoying some pretty special days on the water this summer. Check out this dream day with my son Cooper at the location of our next Jetskifishing social trip. I can't get enough of the soft bait fishing, consistently catching good sized fish on my favoured smaller Daiwa rod and reel combo.
We couldn't believe the fish sign on the new Raymarine ES78, we knew we were in for some solid fish! Cooper also caught a new personal best, Gulp Salmon Grub doing the damage again.

for years, there is still plenty of opportunity to learn from my experience. Here are some key tips I found well received in the latest seminar which the majority who attended werent...Its a much softer riding hull design. Its way more stable at rest than a comparable-sized mono hull. The hull type is over 20% more efficient than a mono-hull, meaning lower overall fuel consumption. A Maverick is virtually impossible to sink, with over 1600 litres of reserve buoyancy in multiple watertight compartments, to keep it afloat even when filled with water. No bulky pontoon boat “life rings” in sight either. As much as 40% more interior space than an equivalent length mono hull would give you. Its a much softer riding hull design. A Maverick is an exceptional 4.5m (LOA 4.9m) boat crafted from tough marine-grade aluminium. This isn’t just another mono-hulled alloy boat either; a Maverick is an asymmetrical planning catamaran. No contest, twin hulls, twice as good:
If you’re serious about your fishing or diving like we are, then you’re among friends here. Whether your thing is jigging or using soft baits, poppers or trolling, a spearo or into scuba, if you’re the kind of person who demands performance from your equipment, and can’t stand flimsy and cynical rubbish, then you’ll seriously get this. What is a Maverick? We’ve designed and built a boat that marries exceptional materials with exceptional design. A boat that rides like a dream, performs, is safe and efficient, and looks the business. A boat that has evolved as much as fishing has. Why is it better? At the heart of it is the age-old multi hull vs mono hull argument. For us, an asymmetrical twin hulled catamaran design puts far more ticks in boxes than any mono hull can manage. “Big call” we hear you say. Well here’s our argument. A Maverick rides better When the chop is up you don’t want to get pounded any more than necessary. A cat has a tunnel running between the two hulls (called sponsons).
The faster the cat goes, the more air is able to enter the tunnel. This mixes with the spray from the hulls to form a cushion of foam and air. This gives the hull lift and reduces the area in contact with the water surface. A cat’s hull displacement spans less than one third of the beam, allowing it to slice through the water easily. Because of its broad under belly, a monohull slaps and grabs at the surface of the water. Even with a deep-vee monohull, the displacement of water still spans a width equal to the beam of the boat. This equates to a lot of surface friction, and a much rougher ride. A Maverick is more stable You want to be as stable and secure as possible while fishing or prepping for a dive, to keep you and your mates safe, and stomachs intact. The cat has two hulls spaced apart that sit down in the water when the boat is at rest. This provides an exceptionally stable and comfortable platform. With monohull designs, the deeper the vee, the greater the rolling effect when at rest.
When the vee is flattened to give more stability, including with the pontoons, you end up with a boat that will pound and slap like crazy through the waves. A Maverick is safer The more stable the boat, the safer it is, and cats are definitely more stable than mono hulls.. Also, with up to 40% more usable space than a comparative sized mono hull, moving around the boat isn’t a potentially clumsy and dangerous activity. A free draining deck ensures any water that comes aboard is able to quickly drain away. There are several watertight compartments built into a Maverick’s hull giving it ‘positive buoyancy’ – With over 1600 litres of reserve buoyancy, you get swamped or holed, it’s certainly a bugger, but a Maverick isn’t going to sink under you. And there’s no need for those bulky pontoon style “life-rings” around the gunwales to achieve this either. A Maverick is more fuel-efficient A Maverick has a genuine planing cat hull, not a displacement hull, and the hulls are asymmetrical.
They’re flatter on the inside. So there is as much as 40% less hull touching the water when under way, compared to a similarly sized mono hull. There is less drag and friction, so it takes less horsepower to achieve the same speed. This makes a huge difference to your fuel consumption, and of course the size of the outboard you need to invest in. A Maverick is durable Coast guards, marine police, DOC staff and hard-working members of the marine farming industry often operate in the roughest imaginable marine conditions. They put in many hundreds of hours on their boats annually, and they depend on them to carry precious cargo, equipment and people. Their boat is the most important part of their operation. So what do they buy? Boats made of marine-grade, plate aluminium alloy. You may not log these kinds of hours on your boat because of that universal inconvenience called ‘work’. But when you do get some time to get out on the water, if you want to be able to always rely on it for many years to come, and you want to be able to push it hard and have it respond in tough conditions like it’s enjoying itself, choose marine-grade plate aluminium alloy like the professionals and we here at Maverick do.
