    White Island November 2017

    Well the weather was crazy good, like oily calm from Friday to Sunday and I think it still is.

    Not much words are needed for this one as the pictures do the talking. My new stick baiting set up is the shit, I spent over 8 hours on the end of it on Saturday and didn't want to put it down. Man seeing them bulldozing along the surface fighting each other for the bait is something to behold!!

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded

    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    There is a world famous (in NZ) maker of sabikis not very far from you. A friend who used to run a well known charter boat would often boat legal kingis on Uncles bait flies whilst catching livies for the punters .
