I scored rhinorack side loader http://www.rhinorack.co.nz/products/roof/roof-trays/xtrays/rhino-universal-side-loader_rusl recently from trademe for a really good deal. This helps me a lot on loading and unloading my kayak to the roof. There’s also a lot of DIYs out there to give similar result Sent...

Scotty and railblaza is just a matter of preference. I chose railblaza because its easier to find the product here.
Chiller bag you can use tagit or those rob forts. Marinedeals is my usual where to go for good reliable online fishing shop

bought 2 reels, took the chance because price is really good. turns out it works pretty well. Granted it's not as good or as smooth of the well known brand, but i think it handles the abuse pretty well. The only bad thing about it is if you missing a part, then basically you need to buy a new reel a...

Thanks Blazer. I was a bit worried if the Wheeleez would fit in my hatch so took the plunge and got the kit. I was a bit worried with my limited DIY skills but fitting was stupidly easy. You just cut the ribs pull off the old plastic, boil yes "boil" the new extenders and slide them on. When they c...

value for money if you don't use it much.. but nothing beats the solid roof rack.

Apart from the scratch, the downside of soft roof rack is water WILL leak into your car during rain.

Had similar prob with my 440. Currently looking for some of those lumbar support. Haven’t pull the trigger tho.

Who knew Shimano NZ read these forums.... You'd be surprised who reads these forums! :D :D Seriously, I work for Composite Developments, we bring Okuma and Savage Gear into New Zealand, along with several other brands. I think in this case it's a pretty simple mix up, and Shimano have certainly don...

I caught 2carrots, 3 snappers between 33-40cm, and 2 fat kahawai which reused as bait.
A lot of small snappers caught and released.
Great dawn service. Lest we forget.

Thanks guys. Anyone tried out the torpedo 7 PFD's? Was looking at the below as an option. https://www.torpedo7.co.nz/products/T7LJJN6PA/title/torpedo7-adult-voyager-paddle-vest Suggest to buy it, keep the receipt and try it out at any nearby beach. If that doesn’t float you, return it back. No ques...

I guess its for you to see where is your line better. Best is to have line that change colour every 10m so you can control the depth of your hook

This is a good initiative.

Can we setup a ground rules, what will happen if someone snagged and lost the lure? It's important to set this rule upfront so you know what to expect

UrbanAngler

Well, came into Makara the other day and it looked an easy landing so hadn't even stowed rods etc. Suddenly got lifted by a good sized set very close to the beach and started going over - :swear: it wasn't going to be pretty (or cheap given 4 rods sticking up) - so implemented what I'd read about p...

Thanks for that too. Can anyone point to a passage of law or any specific by-law that expressly mandates a flag please? There a guidelines and suggestions but nothing I've read thus far claims it is the law. Hmm seems things may have changed in 2014 with the release of "Navigation Safety Bylaw 2014...
