It is a local family run and owned business, proud owners are Leon and Adelaide.
Owner and Skipper Leon is a 3rd generation Waihekean, born and raised on Waiheke Island and has spent his whole life fishing around Waiheke and the Hauraki Gulf. Leon has extensive experience and knowledge of how to not only enjoy fishing, but the thrill of catching that ‘big one’. Also being a strong supporter of major conservations he not only wants to help people catch fish but also teach them to respect the ocean and its wildlife by teaching the catch and release regime.
