Thread: A quick heads up on Tataraakina blocks

Did they offer an alternative block elsewhere?

That was a long drive to arrive at a closed door
Where did you go after that?

Back to Taupo and stayed the night in a motel. They did offer us another block the next day.

On the subject of Tataraakina. It seems that F& G are still not telling people booked into Wakemans that the hunting in that block is very restricted. I have heard that the landowner at Pohokura is not too happy about blokes wandering into his block.
Only a matter of time till something nasty happens imho

I heard entry into the whole place is to be restricted due to 1080 dump

Yep, Simon Hall is having his blocks done with the dreaded green rain
My guess is that he will call a halt to Tataraakina using Wakemens (Alberts) hut for a while at least
