I watched a youtube clip the other day of a Chinese tuna boat operating in the pacific that can catch in one net set the entire tuna catch of a pacific island for a year!!
No wonder we haven't seen any albacore in Tasman bay this past summer! Such a shame, so much fun to catch on a rod!!
@Munsey... getting back to your original post about 'hatching a plan' If I was you id rent a batch in French pass.
Ramp good for launching in most conditions except big northerly/northeast.
Its a bit longer to tow the boat but more options once there.
Shit weather = bob around in pass for cod etc
Easterly = south through the pass round to paddock rocks etc
Westerly = up east coast to the top, rangitotoes etc
Mint conditions = world ya oyster
Can't launch = tow boat back south, fish in sounds ie Elaine bay for example

Just my two cents worth
