    Spoiled for choice here in nz. Only problem at the moment is the bloody waiting lists

    Here's mine. Just had it for a few weeks. Swapped my old FC 430 tiller for it plus a bit of cash. It's fairly old but seems pretty good. Has a 90 horse Yammy. Way quieter than my old 30 horse Suzuki.

    Heaps more fishing room. Took it out on the weekend to the Coromandel mussel farms.caught a few but nothing to write home about. Might go for another fish on Saturday then it'll be all about the hunting.

    Piss crook ay... hard to believe
    Wifey suggested taking me out fishing yesterday.....I thought about it for a couple of seconds then realised that would be worse than going by myself.

    I took the boys out off mapua yesterday.

    There is heaps of brim in around the 10m mark. They are nice fat fish 40-50cm, sorry no on water photos as I mistakinly left my phone in the truck. (had to weed thu heaps of little ones tho)

    Also ended up with a half a dozen small trevally for a change. They been in the brine overnight, just drying them out for the smoker.



    I was reminiscing yesterday as I was putting the boat in that.....this time last year was awesome flounder netting.

    Mum and Dad just popped in they been in the sounds for the weekend. Dad got a couple of snaps in the Queen Charlotte so he was rapt.

    It works......I tied about 6m of rope on each end of mineand clipped a big lead weight on the rope a couple of meters out from net to try and keep it down.
    Then you can "drag" by taking a wrap around your upper thighs and still keep the net on the bottom. Go slow.....like 1/2 walking pace.
