Should be good after the rain, saw a good fish landed from the pipe yesterday as we went by on the boat. My Mates are staying over there for a few days, they got a 6lber tonight jigging, said the wind dropped off.

Snuck in and out of Waihau. One released, one for sushimi

I thought they would be well gone by now.

Just started last week

Yeh a mate got two at 60 kgs last week. Babies

Maybe babies but tasty babies non the less

Wicked ..what a beast ….love this this years winter fishery, large gurnard in close, huge Kawahai in the channels, some very serious kingis up at Stephens on Thursday. Crays along the coast ..big nests not seen for years ..current or water temps top of the south is holding epic fish right now

Probably worth a cool $10,000 in Tokyo

Some one got a sword, tagged a marlin and bagged a mahimahi at Waihau yesterday, the water was still 18 degrees when we were there last Friday..... heard of marlin in winter but not mahi

Nice fish Gibo,like halling in a V8.

They had a bloody good day then ah !!!!

I caught up with my Dad today he showed me a photo from his mate who landed two of those bluefin out off Waihau last weekend.

First one hit the shotgun, next one they all saw come up and hit a lure 6m behind the boat. Two on at once

That shit is what my dreams are made of. You lucky buggers

Yeah its a very cool fishery and yes very lucky to get amongst it. I saw the first one we dropped at the boat hit the lure, was epic! Both of ours took the long riggers

Gotta be a heap of fish about with no Nelson members posting trip reports for weeks.....they will be hungry

See theres been some good Tope caught over blenhiem in the last month, couple of real good ones last week surfcasting so i head over that way torrow and see how i do.
Mate in his tinny when hes been able to get out is slaying the Gurnard in the bay, fish up to 49cm and getting his quota.
