What a weekend ....down Okiwi Friday night ...up well not quite VC o'clock and out down the coast great weather window so past all our usasual haunts ..flat arse with a lazy swell ..boat maxed out 4 souls and 3 dive sets ...and extra fuel...had some intel on a hot spot ..got there ...hooked into some very solid cod ..none of the promised fish so went out wide ..50 meters no tide and sharks so went fitter down to 100 meters ..bit of current and bigger sharks ...boats all doing the same moving and searching for fish and a bite ...so fuck it back to 1st spot to pick up last couple of cod ...got there and Keeley my lass is getting weird bites but not hooking up...VC the cunning soul drops her rig back to a 3/0 hook and she's in ...terakhie ...and small to keeper brim..so a re rig by the crew and down with the burley..a solid couple hours of fishing on light gear saw smiles all round ...burley ran out and so did the tide and the bite ...ran home with a following swell saw us filleting and cleaning into the dark.
Smashed a feed of fresh as fish and watched the footy on poor man tv ...Sunday saw me with beer belly and cautious farts so VC took my lad out for a dive ...they hit my lads faviuorte free dive rock bagged a couple , then tanked up and VC dropped Blake on a new crack ...smiles all round as he picked up a couple of small bucks on the outside of a loaded up cave ..home cleaned up and away home .
Wicked weekend great company laughter bullshit and fishing ..how good a life we live. Thanks VC for keeping the young bloke safe and your efforts in the kitchen and on the boat . Cheers Joe
