Chris, my first mother in law (bloody old battle axe she was) bottled Kahawai and I would defy anyone to pick the difference between that and bottled Salmon in a blind test. Was fucking marvellous.Quote:

Never had King fish. Is it any good to eat or just a good sports fish?
Fantastic, any way you would eat snapper. I like smoked or cut into nibbles and batteredQuote:

Smoked (and pickled) its brilliant eating. Plain its rubbish, at least in my opinion.Quote:

The new rod works just fine Hunter ,that big fella was the 1st snapper its caught + a couple of the others .
what model fin-nor did you get chris was it the powerlite which is what I have got or the offshore
I got the Offshore 16',nice to cast & getting better distance than the Powersticks.
Ahh the sweet tasting cheek meat from a hot out of the smoker kingi - beautiful
And a couple of old pics for the Kawhai munchers. Hot out of the smoker on fresh bread and a beer or in a smoked fish pie is how I like them
