    Tauranga, was flat as all day with hardly a breath of wing, shot out to the Astrolabe reef, full tap the whole way.

    Was going off out there, dolphins, seals and gannets smashing in from every direction, fishing was hard work though.
    4 decent snapper with the biggest 10lbs so pretty good day!

    Looked like an epic day out there. Couple of the lads got out to.mayor for a spear. Of course the good weather lines up with the weekends I have to work as usual.

    Was going to go out yesterday but the warrant for the trailer was out, my fault. Took it in yesterday and now have to replace the springs and back led lights. Might as well do the bearings whilst I've got the wheels off I guess. Just dream of fishing at sea instead. They now have a ramp fee at the beach and the Council guys come roundabout 4 times a day to check tickets, WOF and regos.

    I came home a few days early to head up to the hydro canals fishing with a good friend.

    Big rainbows were spawning so we threw back three at 22lb, 23, and 27lbs.

    Got my personal best at 22lbs but had no qualms about letting it go on and breed for the future.

    Only two salmon of note - 8 and 10lbs but my first ever on a soft bait so that was interesting.

    Anyone headed to the Toby Shoot in November should have a look at a side trip to Twizel and / or Tekapo.

    There are also wallabies on public land in that area !

    Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
