Easy access locations would be, the boat ramp at Rainbow point, bit of a drop off there and easy access all along the walk way. Also try Mission point caught a few there last time, take care to stay 200m away from any stream mouths as theses are fly fishing only areas.

Is it not illegal to fish Taupo with a treble hook lure? Perhaps I misunderstand.
