I wonder if stats nz include whitebait in their cpi basket of goods?

Wow, I could get you some for half that. Probably better quality too.

Just over a kilo this morning, 970 grams yesterday

Not into whitebaiting as such but really should do it one day.
Got a mate who does it down south westland. The Black I think.
Go down for a week, help out and maybe shoot a deer

Yeah. Helps slow your life down. Ruled by the tides for a week or so. Bliss

This weekend should be prime in the lower north island, rivers are still well up but finally settling down after the big fresh

Took the boy out after school today for a couple of hours 201 grams, but as he said it’s just fun being out there.

Yeah always good after a bit of rain, the mouth of the river here is still a bit rough but can bait the surf 2 hours before and after low tide.

Wow theres a lot of water, looks a bit dirty too. Can you spot them or just fishing blind?

Just fish blind so every lift is a surprise

Take up the offer @csmiffy.Great bit of ground down the Black.Bit of a mish getting into it with ya quad but worth the effort.Wait til the wx comes right.Been shit house on the coast since opening day and no let up in sight.Plenty of scrawny donks down the Black needing a tong up

Went again after school today I took my net this time as well and we got 1.2kg

Very slow start here on the Waikato River. Picked up half a kg on opening that was clean but old, it had been in the river a few days. Nothing at all since and no reported catches anywhere. River has been very dirty with all the rain but is clearing up nicely now, should see some fish soon.
