    @akaroa1 almost worth bringing over water bottles not beer, been no rain for 4weeks+
    Christchurch just had the driest November in 165 years I think.
    BP where I am we were 500mm ahead of average yearly rainfall at end of October.
    Then the tap got turned off and it hasn't rained alt all since.

    So lets just get this straight then ..... you don't drink beer anymore ?

    Sharks were straight into the action along with some bloody red cod, birds going hard around us then a pod a dolphins roared passed everything screamed fish.......and fish we did ..yarned up a storm was excellent therapy for us all!

    Mikee did some intel and made some phone calls not much happening around, so we pulled the hook lines and looked back towards home ...Mikee the cunning bugger put us on some reef and my mate Sol pulled a keeper cod from the blue ...yehaa ...we ate lunch had a brew, sat , yarned soaked baits all was right with the world ...trolled some repalas home, snakes were hungry but the kings were not ..Mikee got us home ahead of the sea breeze turned howling gale ..

    Gave the boat a rinse had a further yarn , packed up and away. A wonderful day just what myself and Sol needed bloke time talking bloke stuff , fishing & relaxing. A huge thank you Mikee for your hospitality and trying everything in your tackle box to get us on the fish, your endless paintence and great humour made for a absolutely wonderful day.

    Big hopes for @Munsey to come through with some fishing stories of epic ness ....
    Yep a very good day, Harbourmaster was checking Nav Lights etc when we arrived at the ramp early morning. I think a few people were not that hapy to see him. And one poor sod managed to lose his very very new looking boat off the trailer whilst backing it down the ramp. All before 5am

    looks like the snapper have gone off the bite in the bay though for now, water temp is 21.5 which is higher than usual for the time of year. Never seen so many red cod either

    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.

    It’s a Stabi 1550. Has clear polycarbonate (?) front and quarters. Quite a weird feeling looking down and seeing the bow etc
    The front centre lifts on gas struts to do the anchor.
    Was a dead flat day so not sure how it rides with a bit of chop

    I've looked at pictures of them and wondered how you would do a bimini and front clears with that system?
