Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

@kukuwai, krill at 40, no bait shoals, only one very large Kawhai.. stray line 4 snakes before giving up..glad pannies are about no idea where the mythical tasman bay snapper are..running late ? Or just full?

Nice fish @stingray

Massive schools of kahawai in close still, their guts are chocka with anchovies.

Interestingly both the snapper we got today had absolutely nothing in their stomachs. Were both males and full of milt

Young folk back from day at French pass, weather a lot better up that side than we had ...couldn’t land cod due to the inner sounds seasonal closure ..jigged the pass boated 4 Kīngi one very legal rest shorts. Fished sand bank on the southern side ..small to keeper brim two at a time in 7 meters. Mussel barge heading up Admiralty bay with dead whale tied on along side.

First summerish net for flounder in Raglan harbour was a success ...... damn tasty !!!!

Out early this morning with the boys. Good sea conditions to begin with. Heaps of wood about and some of them are massive so it pays to wait until you can see !!



However it was the 3rd weekend in a row with the tide ripping towards the wind. So fishing with the rods was tough going.

Heaps of boats, they just kept coming out from every direction. About 9 the south wester hit and sent everyone scatting for home.

We had a couple of set lines to collect on the way in which produced some nice fish.

Ended up helping out heaps of folk get there boats back on the trailer at the launching area. A lot of people were really struggling in those conditions. One time you are happy to have a small boat

Fish were fat and full of crabs...

Feed of fish, some bait in the now freezer, great afternoon.

Keep losing my posts whe I try to add pictures.
Got out this morning, lots of kahawai about again....covered lots of ground, burnt lots of burly.
Fish and birds all full of little lobster making snappwr very hard to catch....only one good one on longline one small one on rod, some really nice big gurnard tho.

Think the crays are a little undersized vc

Well it gets worse ...was one of a few men that showed these buggers the ropes ...they were out early and home early ..Tasman bay

They are coming

Not for me , I squeal and fin fast ...how ever my dive buddy has short fins and not a great deal of experience...he’s a top bloke but by hell I will miss him!

Nice morning on the water this morning. The dawn broke to some funky clouds....



There ended up being boats all over the place. Best conditions on a saturday for a few weeks so no surprise I guess

We were back in at the launching area at 10am with a few nice fat fish so nothing wrong with that



By the time I had finished up with the cleaning of gear and filleting it was lunchtime and luckily for me it had been cooking itself Bloody tasty !!!
