    Hunting fish - from Auckland, fishing trip/ comp

    So, how about we have a forum day fishing, leaving from somewhere around Auckland, folks with boats bring them, others get on and we have a ‘informal’ competition.

    Maybe we do a entry fee and we can donate half to a good cause and some to the boats for fuel and the rest for a feed/refreshments or something like that.

    Maybe early December timeframe

    Anyone keen?
    And more importantly, anyone skilled in organising it

    (I’ll bring a boat for 3-4 Fisher folk)

    Cool idea @Beaker. I'm keen, although my boat has no rod holders - Perhaps we could have a spearfishing division of the comp?

    Certainly, no rules yet, as nobody has sorted them.

    Actually, Bring the work boat then!

    And spear fishing doesn’t mean you have to get in the water as well, right?

    Ah no I dont have any to link unfortunately but I have read actual scientific study showing snapper and other species mortality increased markedly...actually alarmingly from more than 10m depth.
    Swimming off strongly is no indication that fatal damage has not already occurred.

    I keep every legal snap from more than 10m now and have been for a few years.

    Will trawl Google tommorow and see of I can find the study to link.

    The other pub ran a comp out of Gulf Harbour, entry fee was divided up between 1st, 2nd & 3rd place and some put towards food for a bbq. Snapper only comp
