    I am guessing so....I have only seen it a couple of times and flicked it to the dogs but I am sure it would be fine to eat cooked.

    Out yesterday afternoon of Waitara, Taranaki, sea temps up over 20deg from 15.5 two weeks ago, snapper have spawned and moved in close enough, for me to get to them with my 14 foot tinny, fishing at 35m of the oil rig.
    Been getting lots of gunuard of the beach, on the surf rods the last few weeks, yesterday was first time, I have really got on to snapper, had to drop down to one rod,
    Caught biggest gunuard, I have ever seen, 57 cm in length, first five snapper were all over 50 cm, biggest at 63,

    Great photo that bottom one. Looks like something you could hang on your wall.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Nope, just the way it worked out, don't get much mess of snapper, esp if Iked and straight in salt ice slurry, ky I bleed over the side and put in the motor well, for ten minutes, I did have to pressure wash and scrub boat.

    How do you rate sticks over poppers/rapala etc etc for strike rate ?

    Cant really say mate, I'm new to it. What I can say is its a very visual way to fish, always scanning and planning the next cast. And the fish when they come in are awesome to watch too!

    The birthday bash ....yawn ....out of bed after a old man nap!

    Up at VC a clock to day light ..does the sun even set anymore? Launched the boat and the hook line as the sun crested the hills ...

    Epic day of fishing, VC again showed his strengths sharking hard out from spikies and chinamen to a great greyboy of 6 ft ...thought I had him on the ropes with an early if not somewhat deformed snapper only to be slaughtered once he got his second wind!

    A few tasty carrots, barstard red cod and one particularly really barstard barracouta to end the day in a line tangle of CUT IT preportions ...cray bait you are you bloody filthy barstard!

    Photos to follow when the head clears and the sunburn eases! A very happy getting older day to you VC! You are simply a good as barstard thank you again for every adventure we have shared.
    Nil durum volenti !!
