About Us

We are a small family owned and operated fishing company, with six small longline boats fishing the North East Coast of New Zealand.

Ensuring our own boats had constant supply of quality bait was the reason behind starting Wild Fish Seafoods.

In 2023 we purchased our very unique Processing Vessel from Australia and journeyed it back to New Zealand.

The San Antone II is a 17 m steel twin-hulled vessel, built in 1988.

Processing immediately on board and snap freezing bait fish ensures they maintain the highest quality, while also reducing unnecessary distress or suffering.
