Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

Spending a couple of days at Lake Tarawera for the school holidays. I haven't been trout fishing for probably 20 years. Took my wife and two boys out on a borrowed boat for an evening jigging (didn't know you could do the for trout??) and bugger me if the wife didn't catch one on her fist drop!! Nice 450mm fish to boot. Wife got all remorseful and wanted to throw it back ......... told her she could throw the next one back. She caught the only fish.

Bloody good life, hunting yesterday, fishing Today. A good eater Kingi.

Yesterday. Bloody rays have destroyed my net the last two times.

Not really my type those ones @Pengy. Prefer a groper to flounder.

watching this guy swim around at my feet, threw him a few pillys which he hoovered up and what do you know next one had a 8/0 in it.... 8kg momoi 40lb trace 83cm kingi. Baitrunners desperate for a service now though hah! Got a cool little video of his mate hoovering up pilchards after he got dealt with but cant post vids

Great stuff. Best fun you can have fishing is a kingie off the rocks.

Got this last week up at whangaroa. Drifting a livey in the entrance. Stoked as it's my best from that spot. Too many bust offs

Took the boy out for a couple of hours this morning. Weather wasnt very inspiring but found a massive bait ball and big donky kahawai smashing bait on the surface...
Big feckers like they were put up a great fight on the soft bait gear but I quickly get bored of catching and releasing kahawai so moved off a bit and burlyed up for some gurnard and pannies hopefully.....fishing was slow with a overtired end of school holidays sulky kid
We got some gurnard and kahawai and cuda sitting in the swell and patches of drizzel....I kept one Kahawai for fresh bait tho that didnt help at all and one other bled for the smoker and a cuda for bait and 9 fat gurnard.
