A mess
This storm coming down next week looks (at this stage in time) a real whacker
If it shapes as that pic shows - I imagine you might not get out to Okiwi Re road slips etc - ground already saturated from last 3 fronts/storms
We had 16 inches this year already !!
Yeah it does look bad. Hopefully is changes.

Its too far out to call yet but if we get some(more) shit during the next week then north (Okiwi vs Nelson) will definatly be the go fishing wise.....just a matter of wind and swell letting us get out......I am quietly confident(optimistic :thumbsup:) at this stage.Quote:

Not sure. Think they're on their way now. It was part of a deal for a hunt he did for the charter owner.Quote:

Id say their chances for a stickface are high no matter where they go based on the season to dateQuote:

We will have smallish tide which means boat launching and retrieval will be a breeze and most if not all will be able to launch and retrieve at everything but low tide.

As well as this long range is looking acceptable for Friday Saturday , vis may be a bit shit depending on the volume of rain we receive. Fishing for snapper if we are going deep should not be affected ...small tides could well mean short bite times or any bloody thing.
Beds are looking like this
Shearer and his good lady , a double. ( work dependent)
Gadget and his daughter next to them,
There is bunks and single which would suit snorers ,
VC will either be fishing , going or packing for fishing so I don't expect he will require a bed.
R93 wants to sleep outside in a one man tent :O_O: but we will save him a bed / couch if required!
That leaves two and a double spare.... so if you have a air mattress chuck it in just in case ,we have a heap of floor space!
Towels etc all ready to go, BBQ delivered this weekend! Bait freezer etc on site
So you will require beer , and some basic tucker plus a thermos would be good idea for a hot drink if boating,a set of warm cloths to be comfortable as the mornings / evenings are cooling down.
Hope it is not a big weather event Tuesday-Wed.Quote:

PS
Can you scare some Snapper into the Pelorus - very poor results here
I'm picking a change in strength and direction it will hit the cooler water and lose its driving force plus the pull of the currents will take it towards the west coast ..sorry R93. Well that my bet.
I'm going fishing next weekend, folks got home dropped of the keys cod and small snapper at the northern entrance! Not flat but bearable
Currents around the NZ coast the cyclone is sitting on the topical current

Situation maps tell the general story but for my fishing (small open boat) I find windyty and swellmap(mostly windy) pretty bloody good for picking a hole in the wind.
Its gunna be perfect for your weekend !!!Quote:

It was those instructions of yours regarding reading the sounder and where to point the pointy end. The fish didn't mind the banana I had in my bag. Was too busy catching fish to eat the thing. A legal kingi has to be on the cards with the water temperatures surely.Quote:
