Hello and welcome to Basic Fishing from New Zealand. Join me on an unforgettable kayak fishing journey filled with unexpected twists and turns. In this video, I set out with the goal of landing my first legal kingfish on the kayak using live bait. However, my plans are thwarted by a swarm of pesky hammerhead sharks, each about 1 meter long, relentlessly going after my live bait. With crowded waters and additional activities adding to the chaos, it's safe to say this outing didn't go as planned. Despite the setbacks, this video offers a candid look at the highs and lows of a day on the water. Dive into the action now! - Hit play now!

Always exciting catching a shark on a kayak, eh. You did a good job with the release of the bigger one. Hope the snapper and possibly kingie fishing will improve a bit for ya. Winter used to be my favourite time for fishing up there.
cheers Mark. I was out today and one thing I found that proved 2 b productive with the kahawai and snapper (with the anchovy session) is to use micro softbaits. I do hope the king will eventually turn up big or small
you have to admit, those hammer heads are a cool looking shark. :)
for sure I wanted to tag them but its hard to handle on the kayak
I was surprised how small they are. I've always thought hammerheads were really big sharks
yea those r just the pups. the giants r very rare in nz, in fact i haven't heard much about big hammerhead sharks in nz at all
I only just started fishing this year. My first 2 fish were Kahawais, my 2nd was a John Dory. So I'm pretty happy that even though I haven't caught many fish, at least I've caught one that seems to elude a lot of fishermen.
nice still yet to land a jd myself
nice vid
cheers
Great stuff
