Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

Got a job on



Hope the forecast stays good for the weekend

Might be a day on the snaps and a day on the tuna if it does

I find tuna prefer bullet heads. Good luck out there

And use singles, better hook up rate then those awful doubles things

Tokoroa Chicken in purple and black is a winner. Fished well out behind the boat.

@Gibo that's good i have got heaps off bullet heads, i got those ones as a point of difference. They were actually marketed as mahi mahi lures but i trimmed them down a bit.

Interesting what you say about single hooks. Most of my lures are rigged with singles. However I now have half a dozen doubles so will conduct an experiment.

Those doubles in the photo were from the local commercial store, they were very adamant they were the way to go?!

Well the westcoast is looking bloody good for Friday and Saturday. I didn't have much whish for the Saturday but hell keen on doing Friday.
Short notice I know....any one keen? Probably 2.5K in fuel divided by the numbers on board.
Not sure how to add you nelson boys in, but lets try.... Nope, me to dump for that.

Why do these things always happen when I am not available????

First dip of the autum season.

Invited the usual gang of blokes. Tides wern't huge but suited a afternoon fish .

First drag up the ebbing currant, felt a bite
my side and a couple on the imports end ...so with a bit of encouragement from a short fella @Pengy ..we hauled the drag ..well bugger me the pom's curse has being lifted .

9 beautiful flats lay flapping on the shore amongst them a much sort after diamond / sand flounder..

Smiles all round a bit of weed shaking and stick removal...down the beach and reset.. @ROKTOY arrived and got gear up...we finished our second drag with another handful of flats ...
@ROKTOY and the @Pengy .managed to set up their own drag ...but with a flooding tide and short legs and waders ...my concerns for the deep water specialist were increased .

We wrangled him back to dry land after much hissing and bitting left the taller import to manage the deep end .

The flood pushed and hits were called ..so with the tide running and tippy toes the drag was recovered...wow big solid flats and a massive diamond a huge treat .

Binned the net but the hard working crew wanted one more dip..sectioned off a 1/3 of a flooding Chanel...shared a beer and a yarn..

Nothing until old stinker headed up the flats ..hauled him in ,lifted the net off em and a bonus flounder splashed about in the drag at our feet ...perfect .

Thankyou

I dare say that like mine, those Penguin legs should should carry a public blindness warning. Good fish there guys.

Shit hot lads.
