Hunt anywhere other than Taranaki. There's a couple of very small pockets of deer on public land in Taranaki but you'll have more luck hunting another region

Yes, but there are heaps of goats in Taranaki which is great for the novice hunter and may I say Northland easily takes out first place for most shit hunting region.
But best fishing ?Quote:

Funny; I rang DOC Whanganui a while ago to clarify access points for a hunting block. Just to be on the safe side. The lady said to me "It makes a change for someone to ring us about hunting and not ask where the best spots are". She then laughed and said "We never tell them though because we like to hunt too".... ;)Quote:

Gave me way more than expected and once we are settled in an area will re-join the local NZDA again.
