A Marlin Mecca | Wanganella Banks | Desolve Films

It's rare to recognise a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in front of you, it's even rarer to pull it off. In our first-ever short film, join us as we take on a bucket list dream, voyaging out to the Wanganella Banks, one of the world's striped marlin meccas 350 nautical miles off New Zealand, along with our best mates.
A journey like this was years in the making. Full of dangers to even access a location as remote as the Wanganella Banks, in the middle of the Tasman Sea. But oh man... the rewards more than made up for it.

Never seen a fishing video with this kind of music! Sounds like NEU, or the CLEAN or something…subscribed!

[@desolvesupplyco]

Glad you liked! Cheers mate

[@jameshoseason6396]

Nice work on that film. That bouy is very unusual. Was it drifting ? or was it anchored like a wave-height bouy / weather bouy ?

Great catches, trip of a lifetime! How have the Talica 50’s performed and held up for you all?

Great trip & video guys! I make similar trip videos too - yours is much more professional than mine though. What kind of camera/lens was used to capture the video of marlin jumping around the stern?

[@johnlacey5068]

[@desolvesupplyco]

each to their own I suppose! fair enough haha
