'Ruan Hayward' Surf to Ski, Jet Skis, Big Dreams & Bigger Fish | Get the Net Podcast | EP05


In this episode of Get the Net, Nick chats with Ruan Hayward— a dedicated fisho who’s built his fishing journey from the ground up. Originally from South Africa, Ruan shares how he started surfcasting around Auckland with just a rod and a bus pass, learning the local conditions the hard way.

From there he graduated to owning a JetSki for solo missions chasing kingfish and snapper, and now owns a beautiful boat for game fishing and deep missions with the crew & for his future family boating.


They talk about reading sign, planning trips around weather, the mindset shift that comes with bigger water, Ruan opens up about how fishing really helps his mental health and what his future looks like here in New Zealand
