    Been thinking its whitebait season and it could be worth casting a lure for a sea run? at high tide in the estuary here?
    Fishing from a boat is legal,check the regulations in the area. There are quite a few lures out there that a close to a white bait lure look alike.

    Good stuff Roy.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Spent the afternoon on the Tutaikuri. Rivers cleared nicely but trout numbers are light in the lower reaches. Caught one around 3/4kg almost straight away so released it expecting more would come. Didn't bump another one for the rest of the day. Nice walk all the same. No photos this time.

    3 to 4kg? I'm sure a photo wouldn't of hurt it before release Brown or Rainbow?

    Nah. Three quarters of a kilo not 3-4 kilos
    Don't think I've ever seen a brown in our local creeks other than up the Mohaka.
