I was in NZ last year and they were catching tons of fish offshore. They call yellowtail "kingfish", and they are huge. We spent some time on the east cape and they were chasing marlin and tuna. Lots of big tuna around (over 200lbs). It was the best marlin season in several years, so I heard.

Good luck, you'll love the place!
