Brett Rathe

Brett has been brought up on boats as his family have been boating on the Hauraki Gulf for four generations.

Brett's father Jack was a commercial fisherman and also loved entering all the gamefish contests with wife Ngaire, and all the family were involved.

Learning to dive with Guy Kidd at Dive Centre in the early 70's, Brett still enjoys capturing Crayfish and Scallops.

Brett's also sailed to the South Pacific Islands several times and fished, snorkled and dived there too.

Brett is a very able boatman and has experienced all conditions that the sea has thrown at him.

Brett has a wealth of knowledge in many ways of fishing and rigging up your gear.

Brett gives his clients the best possible experience out on the water, whether they're fishing or bird watching, because he has an infectious passion for the outdoors which is sure to rub off on you.
