The 4 day Ranfurly combo is a great trip to tick off that bucket list bluefin and then go onto the famed Ranfurly banks for a shot at some Ranfurly Monsters. Bass and Hapuka are prolific during the winter months with some Bass going over 100lbs . Always a chance at a monster kingi as well but they are not prolific at this time of the year. This is a fun trip were you can choose what you want to do over the 3 days of fishing. Day 4 is steaming back to Whakatane to arrive approx midday (Bar conditions and tide dependent)
