Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

He broke his back for a fish | 4x NZ Surfcasting Champion | Chad Prentice
Q: What gear would you recommend for someone starting out or getting into competitions?
Start with a rod that you can bend to cast comfortably, and a reel with smooth drag; Shimano X-Fance rod and Shimano reels like the Ortegra XSE offer a balance of performance and value for beginners who want room to grow.
He broke his back for a fish | 4x NZ Surfcasting Champion | Chad Prentice
Q: Could you talk a little about topwater and kingfish in the surf?
Topwater offers endless opportunities around troughs and aerated water where kingfish and other predators hunt; live-baiting and stick-baiting can be combined for long casts and entertaining hits, with the right gear and technique.
From Tyres to Trophy Fish: Ethan Bryant’s Wild Rise at the Three Kings
Q: Bait or lures for marlin?
For marlin I prefer lures, while for everything else we rely on bait; we tow lures until the fish comes up, then might pitch a bait if it's in the right position.
From Tyres to Trophy Fish: Ethan Bryant’s Wild Rise at the Three Kings
Q: If you had to choose one rod and reel for the rest of your life, what would you take?
An Abyss 37 kilo with a Talica 50, which gives me the power and durability to chase swords daily, and I'd pair it with heavy tackle for versatility across species.
3 Kings in a 3 6m Inflatable Tasman from NZ Wild Adventures Pushes the Boundaries of What's Possible
Q: How do you plan trips and manage fuel, food, and route before you set off?
He explains planning starts with maps and distance estimates, then factoring in fuel reserves and contingencies, adjusting on the fly as needed, and using a simple approach to weather forecasting while in-range, with a preference for improvisation once underway.
