    Kawekian

    Kia ora team
    I'm Luke, a school teacher from Napier. I've taken up hunting in the last couple of years after moving to Napier. Prior to that I spent about 20 years fly fishing around Canterbury.

    I've a couple of teens, one who mostly enjoys coming out for a hunt, and the other who enjoys tramping and fishing. My 14 year old and I have recently started doing a trapline for the Save our Kaweka Kiwi trust. Cheers 🍻

    Welcome Luke. Not a great year to start in the Bay but it can only get better. Most local fly fishing has been taken off the cards and a lot of Kaweka access has been limited. Sing out if you need some local pointers. Good job doing the trap lines too. Which school are you at?

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Sing out when your keen for a hunt

    Easy enough to show you some good spots for both meat animals and decent Sika stags
