The Captain is a unique kiwi with a friendly and helpful disposition.
Over the years I have been referred to as Captain Lozza and it’s stuck. I have been fishing these waters for the past 20 years in a variety of vessels and I am very familiar with the Hauraki Gulf which makes the sightseeing option one that won't leave clients disappointed. I have been lucky to have learnt from the best, he has vast experience as a commercial and recreational fisher in the Hauraki and especially the Coromandel region. As is the case with most traditional hunting disciplines, the Master passes on his skills and knowledge to the apprentice. I was the apprentice for many years, also learning from other great anglers and after completing my SRL Skippers ticket last year I have graduated to Master. I know a lot about fishing and guarantee to show you a good time and will do my best to assist you in landing the big one!
Let me customise your experience to ignite your fishing or sightseeing pleasure!

Happy Days on the Hauraki

5.00Third time we have booked with this charter operator "Captain Lozza". He knows the Hauraki well and is very educational and knowledgeable for my clients I take onboard. Fishing has been good to us (secret spots by all accounts) and the days on the water are always very entertaining. Both the boat and the equipment always clean and all in good working order. Good value for money and my business will continue to use Hooked Up.
Fantastic

5.00A day out on the sea with "Hooked up Charters" will be one, not to be forgotten. From the initial meet and greet, to filleting up at the end of the day, it was action jackson all day long. The skipper knew his stuff, some great fishing spots and had plenty of fishing stories tales to tell. The boat was fantastic, the fishing tackle surperb and the entertainment provided by the skipper had me in stiches.An ideal days outing for all ages and different levels of fishing ability. This experience comes highly recommended and is ideally located, right in the heart of Auckland and literally only minutes out to the middle of the Hauraki. Thanks Laurie, we'll be back!
