    Went fishing yesterday, had to drive around a bit to find fish. Got enough for the 3 of us. Snapper mainly, plus a single kw and a horse mackerel.

    I'm in the driver's seat/side, and just to keep it nearly level....Name:  20240104_135509.jpg

    Went out through the Port Waikato bar on Friday. Tried 35m mark first and it was very slow with no size. Steamed out to the 60m mark and cleaned up. Nothing huge, but lots of solid west coast table fish. Had all we needed in 60min.

    Took the boy out with a mate who needed a good mojo infusion.
    It wasn't a horrible afternoon.

    Sorry folks only took one photo and this was it.



    Good morning on the water. Only managed 2 snapper. 1was 8lb off the longline. Mate got a real nice 15pd on on his baitrunner.

    Lost a few hooks to big sharks.... livie under a ballon got eaten twice by something with plenty of go in it and looking at the slashed trace had sharp teeth

    Livie on the bottom got some attention too. Big xos grayboys which we ended up cutting off at the boat.

    A few gurnard rounded out the morning, one of which was caught by the younng fella on a sabiki. He also got some nice big mackerel which we kept for the smoker.

    It was a busy little boat but tonnes of fun
