This is New Zealand's first major gamefishing book in twenty years, in this time developments and technology have made gamefishing a lot more accessible and widely enjoyed than ever before. the author, Sam Mossman, is a well-known authority on the subject. The book covers the full spectrum including techniques, equipment, boats and a wide variety of fish including: marlin, sharks, broadbill, tuna and kingfish.

Since the last substantial book on gamefishing in New Zealand was published there has been a revolution in the sport. A dozen gamefishing clubs have blossomed into more than fifty. Stand up tackle and the proliferation of lure fishing has meant that anyone with a well-found trailer boat can go out and have a crack at the big fish. New tackle, techniques and fisheries have broadened the scope of the gamefisher considerably, and the banning of possession and sale of marlin by commercial boats has greatly increased numbers of this dynamic fish. Everything that the gamefisher needs to know is covered in this comprehensive book.
