Well not exactly fishing tomorrow. But about to head away to the Philippians for 15 days.
Was looking at taking my boat rod but need to buy a smaller one, as the one I have is too bug for how we are travelling.
Since we are three days on a boat there's no way I'm leaving with out one.
Anyway Ive found what I need.
But in looking I came across this.

I hope thats not the one we booked:XD:
I've stayed at home over the last few days despite the stunning weather. Mojo is lacking for some reason, plus the craziness at the boat ramps puts me off. There's some fucking morons out there! Anyway, at 2200 tomight, the urge comes back, so I've spent the last hour getting loaded. What will be will be tomorrow. I've no great desire to catch snapper, but will take a couple to feed us for the week, otherwise. it's all about kingfish and trevally.
Here you go just for the crazies at the boat ramp:XD:;) and any that don’t adhere to the fishing rules:thumbsup:

good luck, yep boat ramps have been in overload mode with all the fishing comps and jaffas invading us this weekend
Had a wicked night out at the beach. Wife and kids were riding horses and I was being entertained by the local snapper. This guy was a late player, 11pm was sitting down with the wife about to pack up when my rod fell over and proceeded to enter the sea horizontally. I jumped up after it and tripped over in my haste to fill my face with sand before making it to my rod just in time :D Bloody good times and the Mrs is still laughing at me.

Pan fried for breakfast Gibo?
Great day out with my dad I’m Welly harbour a few days ago! My iPhone ended up in the drink as I was getting back onto the jetty at the marina at the end of the day, but luckily I’d already sent these photos to a buddy so was able to recover these photos from the day. Lost a few others though. Good excuse for an upgrade :D
First kingi caught on the lighter gear we were using to catch livies, the other kingis on live jack mackerel. First one came in a couple of cm under so it went back. Others just over 80cm. One came home, along with the ele & a couple Kahawai.

Tangaroa gave me snapper, so we will be eating snapper this week.

Out this morning early with Dad and one of his neighbours.
On the water with lines and burly deployed before light as the the tide times and size were a bit shit.
Sat threw till just after the high with only one kahawai.
Went super shallow in channel for the start of outgoing tide....plenty of very small snapper but nothing bigger showed up so we went a few miles out to deeper water for a go....even at midday a straylined whole pilchard would be half eaten and have 5-8 sea lice eating it when wound in.
I have only ever seen the lice that bad in full daylight once before.....theroys anyone?
Anyway we come in with a feed of pannies and a big rig.....it happened to be low tide shortly after I got home so I got the tinny punt out and deployed the flounder net.
Took one of the neighborhood kids out to pick it up and sent him home with fresh flounder.

Out early this am with @stingray to try some deeper water.
Windy ty looked a bit average but I hoped for the best.
Out into the blackness she was well sloppy with white bits on top and we turned back into the shelter of cable bay.
We entertained ourselves for a couple of hours by catcheing many small snapper and a few small trevs while tangling ourselves up in the burly and anckor ropes as the boat swung round and round in circles in the wind and eating some sandwiches.
Certainly lots of juvenile snapper in the shallows of Tasman bay at the moment which can only be a good sign for the future.
