Nice work PS, how clear was the air tonight eh, seemed like coro was within spitting distance (sadly from the shore for me not on the water).

Sampson

Any more there? - nothing wrong with the FI wouldn't mind picking one up at that price. Symetres a good option also if you can't stretch to the stradic fj price point.

Someone convince me that I can buy the $900 Prowler and not suffer buyers remorse. I couldn't afford any of the more expensive prowler or profish models so went with the prowler 13 and suits me just fine - I haven't paddled anything else much so don't know what I'm missing out on, but ignorance is ...

Think warehou hit jigs pretty hard down your way? Could be a bit of fun around Kaikoura etc.

Hi guys, just letting you know that Red is starting to put together the odd local trip around Waiheke in between Barrier trips. It will be the same format as the Barrier trips i.e. leave friday night and back sunday arvo. $150 and the destinations will be flexible and obviously weather dependent but...

A decent proportion of the kingis I've caught on Waiheke have had old hooks and trace in their gobs but mostly this is around the mussell farm so I guess people have hooked them on snapper gear and they've quickly busted them off.

The sounds would be an amazing multiday dentination for kayak fishing - good on ya for putting it on the bucket list shld be a blast mate.

Not kayaking related but had a mate fishing in motuhie channel the other day in his yacht and another yacht colided with him and ended up against his yacht, the offending yacht had a rod in a holder onboard which caught my mate by the arm with a hook which he had to cut to free the other boat, then ...

opened a new tube of all-clear yesterday and it seems very thick, is this stuff suppose to even out on its own or does it stay firm in the same way it come out. How do you fill around the transducer if this stuff is so thick? Yeah I used it around the transducer and it was a pain to use - hard to f...

Do you guys tow your yak while spearing, a la plat, or anchor and venture away from it?

Sampson

Good stuff, Perch are meant to be quite nice to eat arnt they?

That's a long time away mate and the weather is so changeable at the moment that I don't think I'd put too much faith in it, but http://www.metvuw.co.nz" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; is pretty good. At least with Barrier you have protection from all wind directions somewhere - as lo...

I'll have to pass on the 15lb Mitch, got to get some in the next day or two sorry.

Sampson

I've never eaten one but was told to gut them quickly after capture to stop their stomach contents tainting their flesh? They're suckers for mussels as bait, but then you might as well eat the mussels eh

You only have to walk along any beach on Waiheke to realise just how many kayaks there are out there (admittedly most are not fishing yaks) - sadly most are seldom used, but it's big buisness for sure.
