Kontiki Fishing
Kontiki fishing allows fishers to tow 25 hook long lines or dropper fishing rigs up to 2000 meters offshore. Check out our ShoreThing kontiki for shark areas!
Kontiki fishing works best when the surf is less than two meters, the current is not too strong and when deployed over clear sandy bottom types.
Avoid using kontikis in areas where a lot of sharks are present unless you have a ShoreThing.
A ShoreThing should also be used if drifting weed is present to keep the baited hooks free from weed while fishing.
