Did a set off Le Quesne Rd on Friday night. 1 carrot and wind picked up on dark.

thanks TeRei when longlining on the sand at Opotiki I usally set at about 800m do you have a distance that works better than others on napier beaches or just trial and error cheers jeff

Did 20 minutes on slow .The sea was flat. Had to pull it in a few hundred metres because the usual idiot next door to us [non gps] just let his drift towards us. Infuriating.Going to use some tuna[Maori version] next time.

Forgot to mention we are going to try this with baits.

Where do i get the elastic tubular mesh to use with chicken livers

tuna , MAORI VERSION ???
