Thread: Spearfishing

It's been a while since I posted here, but with covid lockdowns and a young son there hasn't been a lot to report. But Thursday was one for the archives.

I dropped my son off at daycare on the way to the ramp and was on the water shortly after 9am. We whipped across the gulf, making the trip from Mangawhai to Great Barrier Island in a little under an hour and a half.

The diving was great. There was pleasant vis and enough current to keep the fish in the right areas. Between 4 of us, we ended up with a good binful and I managed a couple of solid fish in the late afternoon.

A big day on the water saw us back at the ramp at 7:30pm with a heap of filleting to do.
