Makes a HUGE difference to table quality if this is done quickly.

Trim the red meat out and kahawai makes great shashimi

Welcome to kill it and eat it @Joeschmo some of the best protein you can feed yourself and family!

We had a bash ourselves got out the front to find blue water and epic 13 meter vis, we drove around looking down on boulder beds and rocks, finally picked a spot and sunk down to the bottom , looked for a cray the swam round round up down over there then over round again, vis was amazing the best I ever seen in 35 years of diving, but it wasn’t fishy at all, went a couple of meters deeper and finally feelers , then keepers hitting the sack.

Sucked a tank dry and had a feed in the bag got back in the boat to see the free divers getting a pass by by a pod of dolphins, got everyone back on board and head off for a prospect on another bit of turf, vis remained epic VC was first in and hunted round a weedy rock and found a nice keeper lurking under a rock showed it to VC Jnr and sacked it, I swam and swam and swam fingers of reef ran off into the sand wonderful fish life a we brim , and goat fish ( male ?) in bright purple head with a yellow fleck , trevs bunched up under a rock , red moki dark red almost freshly painted,and a bloody great big ray that flowed me around like a lost dog.

Saw one small cray , nothing worth bothering, back in the boat , vc had murdered a beautiful blue cod but it was a pretty quite spot, the sun beat down so we cracked a cold one and headed in.

Happy anniversary VC and Mrs VC. Keep up the good work !

Best place I’ve ever been. Best people. Best fishing. Best fish. Goats that need to be shot. Too many deer. Little kids that can walk to school or the park or the dairy by themselves and return again.
Just don’t ask me about the housing situation and we’ll be just fine

1st December and now counting down to xmas holidays in pelorus 25 days in our patch of paradise and fishing bliss ��

Got a good feed in the Firth on Saturday. Moved a few times before we found fish.
Got outfished by the wife again.

Got called to arms, @ROKTOY needed a fish , Keith turned at my place the a welcome surprise so did VC , we headed out to the local haunt which to be honest has being thrashed ..to much posting on the online media …so we arrived to have the place to our selves …

The seriously kitted out truck pulled up , out bounced a lady , and a couple of dogs , she set up a surf caster and took off towards her chosen spot . So we did the same into wetsuits , and down into the tide .. bites in the net got the blood pumping, short drags to avoid the old stinker , saw a few beautiful big flats in the bin,

Three drags had us a feed , binned the net gutted the catch , home washed/ fed the dogs , shared a beer and finally in bed!


Good night folks!
