Our Mission
At MF, weβre not your average tackle shop - weβre lure-fishing obsessed, and we're on a mission to give anglers access to the worldβs best tackle.
Every size, every colour, every model -properly stocked, presented, and ready to fish.
New gear lands all the time, so thereβs always something fresh to cast, chase, and get excited about. Tight lines from the MF team - where serious lure fishing lives!
OLLIE
At the heart of our store is Ollie β a passionate light tackle fisherman and, we believe, New Zealandβs youngest fishing store owner. What he may lack in years, he more than makes up for in energy, fishing knowledge, and a sharp eye for the best gear on the market.
Ollieβs no stranger to e-commerce. He grew up behind the scenes of Mighty Ape β one of New Zealandβs most successful online retailers β and is now building his own business, focused on quality gear, sharp pricing, and excellent customer service.
Cho
Cho runs the show at our Ruakaka retail store and brings a wealth of fishing knowledge, retail experience, and good vibes to every customer interaction. Whether you're hunting Kingies or kitting out the kids for their first wharf mission, Choβs got your back.
Come by the store β Cho's always up for a chat and keen to hear how your latest mission went!
Ian
If you've ever been inspired by a post, caught a gear tip from a reel, or entered one of our giveaways β chances are Ian was behind it. Heβs the creative mind who keeps our social media buzzing with fresh content, fishing action, and the latest gear drops.
Follow along and get amongst it β Ianβs always cooking up something worth checking out.
Prince
Meet Prince β Chief Morale Officer
He may not pack orders or test tackle, but heβs a key part of the crew. Prince loves tagging along on fishing trips, patrolling the shallows, and keeping watch for fish (real or imagined).
You wonβt find him behind the counter, but he's a big part of the Monster Fishing spirit β loyal, adventurous, and always ready for the next trip!
