    Pulled in behind the shed at the workers quarters, Samoan flag flying proudly above the common room.

    "Hey fellas you want some snapper heads?"

    "Oh yes please, yes please !!"

    washing basket !!
    Bloody classic

    My mission failed, did `t catch any but lost some softbaits and lures when searching around those under water structures. Hope next year around Sep I could have a chance to go back there again.

    Got wet , for the first time in months , checked out new turf, nothing to show for a tank…back to old faithful spot …heaps and heaps of crays …from 3 inch long to shorts, was an amazing dive …dropped to the bottom , the rock / cave was empty apart from a few cast shells …looked around the rest of the turf bloody crays everywhere little long feel’rd crays…

    Swam around rest of the turf …many many more small crays …rolled over to the last cave in the area and “ you beauty” moment , a couple bigger crays ..

    Looked at the biggest out in a wide open cave , I really wanted to give him a heave , but experience said take the handy keeper so sacked him, and grabbed second but she was egged up so let her go, the big bugger was cunning as retreating just out of reach…

    The cold water took its toll and back into the boat I climbed…

    Cheers VC for a wicked day out, still trying to warm up …let’s do it again …because we are very good at it

    @stingray perfect winters day fishing, it was a bit busy down at the end of the road when we drove past at 10am, at least 1/2 dozen boats out...

    Looked good this afternoon as well as the tide fulled in and the slight seabreee dropped. Whats the water temp at the moment

    Nice haul of carrots.

    Cheers FBD

    Temp today was 15c on sounder.
    Leftovers of the marine heatwave.
    Warmer than average temperature hanging around in the top of the south and also Invercargill north to Dunedin.

    Was a great first day off work.

    Out with Dad today,from Nelson to burn some 500hr carbon out apparently.
    Same spot as yesterday @stingray blue cod were small in yesterday's spot.....went 6-7m left and got our limit a couple min.
    Longline deployed....all squid bait I am sure we have had this discussion multiple times before.

    Burly up,catch some really good gurnard on the rods...tide ran out(small tides) picked up longline for not one single gurnard gutted fish and steamed home.
    Was a nice day on the water with no early start and nice weather.
