Thanks @Pengy
28 or 29 years ago a mates girlfriend had a family batch at Kuaotunu where we would take his inflatable out from. Not many snaps but crays were good.
Going in a 6m Scorpion hardtop
Thanks for nothing (or something next week) Happy. Remind me to tell you my Urewera Spot X that goes off every April
Same mate upgraded to a Fyran 440 and different girlfriend so Kuaotunu was off.
One day we launched from Matarangi to go around the back of Merc Island. Fishing was good but didn’t notice a change in the sea until we came home. That was a long ride back
Yep had the odd exciting trip back across "The Puddle". Mate said one trip Happy watch out your side and tell me when there's a big one coming.. My reply was f off theyre all f ing big you tosser.. That was a ride I ll never forget. Funny how most boats can take more than crew sometimes ...Quote:

We ended up playing in the current all facing wrong way so went out to slipper island and found a great sheltered spot.
Good bin of three to four pounders .Steady bites couple of Kingies gave a good fight just under limit so catch and release
Nice sleep then to Opito got a heap of scallops and back in again.
Helped do 700 mtrs of trenching on Bro in laws block then night shoot 10 rabbits 1 wildcat.
Great weekend. More trenching and pest control this weekend if the rain lets us.

Was looking forward to the weekend away and fishing but thats the way the weather gods have played their hand. The local fishing comp was also postponed till end of the month
Still taking tomorrow off to spend the day with wife and kids. Maybe Kelly Tarltons
