If you fish the tip of the mole on the left hand side with metal slugs you will bring in barracuda one after the other. They attack the lure as soon as they hit the water and you will be on before you take up the slack in the line. Not good to eat but great fun to catch.
that's a cool tip. Barracouta are real good fun to catch, eh. especially on light tackle sometimes I keep one for bait. They actually taste good too, but 9 out of 10 times have those parasitic worms in their meat, which is not very appetizing at all 😆
thanks for the feedback. Yeah the Aramoana Mole is probably better suited for diving than fishing. I have talked to a few locals who were spearfishing there. Hopefully it will become an official marine reserve. Just going for a dive and marvelling at the underwater world would be already totally worth the trip. The more marine reserves we have the better as this will improve fishing everywhere else.
Find myself back here after a year has passed and must say I still enjoy this video. Found myself fishing at almost all of these spots over the summer as well 😂
try to use crabs and mussels for bait when you fish from the beaches or rocks. Gives you a good chance to catch rig or moki. Fishing in the harbour from a kayak is also good fun and very productive.
It depends where you are really. You can catch a lot of yelloweyes and kahawai east of Dunedin, in the channels around the estuarine areas. They come in at low tide chasing mullets. Also quite a lot of sea run trout (fresh wilds coming off a couple rivers) and the occasional salmon.
Dunedin is my favourite city in the South Island, NZ. Love the city and the vibe, as well as the wildlife
It certainly is great fishing country

Barracouda is a really good bait to use. they have oily meats that attract other fish.
Couta are actually delicious if you don't mind the worms, called snoek in South Africa
@@cosmikos3560 I think barracouta are a different species to barracuda.
@@argielita yep they are, in NZ we have couta not cuda, barracuda live in warmer tropical areas
Dunedin is one of the only cities in the South island we haven't been to yet!! Will definitely be remembering this when we do 🤙
Yeah man, definitely worth spending some time down there and doing a bit of fishing 🎣
Excellent mate.
Many thanks!
Bloody awesome bro. Your sure getting around
Cheers man, yeah doing my best to keep on moving 😆
Great stuff
thanks mate!
Great video! Up to date content as well. Just a heads up the Aramoana Mole is considered an unofficial marine reserve by the locals.

7 months in dunedin fishing once or twice a week. Haven't caught much at all. I think its not great for land based.
