The 19th-century Ngāti Porou leader Tuta Nihoniho described one form of mōkihi, or raft, constructed by his tribe for inshore fishing. Also known as amatiatia (outriggers), these craft were made of buoyant wood from small trees – whau or houama – and pinned together with mānuka. A second layer of smaller timbers was placed over the main pieces. They were then lashed together with a length of supplejack vine. Two such floats were placed about 1 metre apart and tied to three or four connecting poles. Two people would sit, one on each side, and paddle. The rafts were used for fishing, and to set and collect crayfish traps.

In 1865 Henare Nihoniho was present with his hapu at the opening of the church at Popoti when the Reverend Mohi Turei brought word that the Pai Marire leaders involved in the killing of the missionary C. S. Völkner at Opotiki had entered Ngati Porou territory. Henare led Te Aowera against them but was defeated and killed in the fighting near the Mangaone Stream in June 1865. As he lay dying he gave his rifle to Te Teira Pikiuha to take to Tuta so that he could avenge him.

I ngā whawhai ki Te Tai Rāwhiti, ka hono atu a Tuta Nihoniho ki ōna o Ngāti Porou i raro i a Rāpata Wahawaha. I Tikitiki, wāhi o te riu o Waiapu, ka hono atu ia ki te āwhina i te hunga kūpapa a te kāwanatanga ki te hanga pā ki reira.
Tuta Nihoniho took part in the fighting on the East Coast, with Ngati Porou forces led by Rapata Wahawaha. He joined other government supporters in building the pa at Tikitiki, in the Waiapu Valley. An attack was made on Pukemaire pa, belonging to Te Whanau-a-Hinerupe, a hapu which had espoused Pai Marire. The Hauhau repulsed the attack and counter-attacked to take Tikitiki. The surviving government supporters fled to Te Hatepe, the pa of Mokena Kohere, the leading Ngati Porou supporter of the government. They were joined there by a company of military settlers and some Hawke's Bay volunteers and received military supplies from the government. At this pa Te Aowera chose Rapata Wahawaha as their leader, on the nomination of Nihoniho. Te Aowera fought the Hauhau at Makotukutuku and took part in the attack on Pakairomiromi. Many Hauhau were killed when it fell, among them Iharaira Porourangi, the principal Ngati Porou chief to join Pai Marire. Pukemaire was then attacked; on the third assault it was found to have been evacuated. The Hauhau were pursued to Te Kawakawa (Te Araroa) and, after that fell, to Hungahunga-toroa. The earthworks there had not been completed and the Hauhau fled or surrendered. Fighting came to an end in Ngati Porou territory.
