Taupo Catfish Cull at Waitangi Weekend – save the date
Dec 23, 2020
Events
There have already been some great spearfishing events this summer and there are plenty more coming up.
The annual catfish cull at Lake Taupo on 6 February 2021 (Waitangi Weekend) will be a major highlight. The cull takes place at Motuoapa, Lake Taupo and it’s one of the biggest spearfishing events in NZ, with typically 200-300 people competing to rid the lake of pesky catfish.
Spearfishing NZ has details of upcoming events.
Spearfishing NZ wishes everyone a safe summer of diving – but remember, always use a dive flag and always dive with a buddy! Also, everyone please take it easy burleying around the sharkier waters… it’s better if you make it home whole, with your fish in pieces, not the other way around.
