    Can be hard fishing in the middle of the day or small tides, good current and change of light is generally the best in my experience.

    Dad went out last thursday (big tides) took two old ladys, they caught 25 snapper and realeased 5 massive ones kept 20 and were heading back in at 930 am, current and burly up!

    @vietnamcam thanks, last Thursday I ran into a kayak fisher at cable bay he had caught 4 x 10lbs in a couple of hours. So Thursday was good tides and good fishing on the lunar calendar, we did pick up 3 big flounder using SRs net Thursday evening

    I was on the water by 8am, need to get up earlier.. don't particularly like using berly on the kayak, had a Mako join me in the yak of Taranaki a few years back.. after that I stopped using berly..

    the story of fella doing cray pots off yak and his intimate encounter with octopus made me chuckle and shiver in equal measure.

    Got the call up for decky duty, 4:30am launch saw us poke our nose out into a very strong SW blowing, so we tucked in the harbor and waited for wind to drop, which it did. Headed out to 20m and deployed the burley and dropped the baits over side.

    Slow fishing but we Picked up 4 x snapper and a couple of gurnard. The snapper were plenty big enough to feed a few of us.

    Ahhh now I know what fishing Delaware Bay is all about.. spikey dogs, spikey dogs and more spikey dogs..then a big greyboy

    Tried drifting in 30m, 25m and 15m, with no burely finally at 7m no spikey dogs but no other fish either. Did note water temp lower out wide... warmer in 7m

    Otherside of bay and out from Nelson seems warmer and fishing better.

    Yesterday. Finally got the ski wet. While waiting for the tide to drop, we trolled for kahawai with a few strikes, but no hookups.
    A quick afternoon tea on a random bit of sand before dragging the net in a channel for an hour.
