And he waits no more .....VC and his young bloke swung by chucked me in their truck, told me to. Get in shut up and hang on! We were off ..dawn saw us soaking hook lines one shallow as and the other deep as ( my pick ) ..we set to soaking baits with the skipper putting on a shit hot spot. The young fella and I enjoyed the burley washing our side of the boat seeing small but take able brim( snapper) some carrots and frustranily undersize cod ..
The tide eased so we pulled the hook lines , the deep spot saw much success with a heap of much sought after and treasured spikies some real trophy fish amoungst them, so we pulled the shallow line as well to harvest a handful of solid carrots.
To finish the day the cold wind eased , the sun came out and the tide started running out and again VC put us on a hot spot the young bloke bloke set to slaying terakihie more of these delicious little fish than I have seen in years ..not only that but he hooked onto the carrots . Nailing double headers he was on fire , whist dad and myself set to thininng the southern sail fish population. VC wisely took my advice to take advantage of the current and breeze in the same direction and sent his hand tied strayline rigs into the jaws of these wonderful sport fish!
Eventually we were being plagued by tiny terakehie just stripping our tiny baits and our burley ran out so we ran home with a feed of fresh delicious fish, nothing huge but a wonderful feed. A wonderful day amazing company as always and a some turf to look over when I slide back into a wet suit! What a wonderful life what a amazing day ! Thanks to VC and his lad you guys know how to make a man feel welcome !! Cheers
