Chalmers Recreational Sports Fishing Club

Welcome to our Website!

Our club is based in Port Chalmers, Otago, New Zealand, with an emphasis on gamefishing in Otago waters

We are fortunate to have close access to one of the most prolific shark fisheries in New Zealand (...and perhaps the world!!!) with an abundance of species such as Blues, Porbeagles, Threshers, Makos, and even regular sightings of the famed Great White Shark

We cater for all interests in salt water fishing, and host regular contests that range from "landlubbers days" through to serious "blue water" game fishing events

Our Club is based on the edge the Otago Harbour, in the settlement of Port Chalmers. Beyond the Otago Peninsula and Taiaroa Head is the Pacific Ocean, and members can be fishing oceanic canyons from 100 meters to over 1000 metres in depth in less than 40 minutes from the launching ramp!
