I've sight dropped a lure directly onto a 10kg Snap under my yak in 2m of water, in the "wild" far north with no issues, sounder banging away. Elasmobranchs however... I've seen a bay of Eagle Rays scatter as I glided (glid?) in quietly with the sounder running. 2 meters of water, the cone of most ...

Marc, some will say they do some will say not . I say no they do not . Commercial boys use them 100% . Mine is on 100% whilst fishing from 1 metre which shows nothing out to the 50 m mark. To turn sounder off you are now almost blind so what is the point of turning it off and on . I speak only for m...

Expanding foam, good read . Traps for the home handy man for sure. Sort of retired my chill pod in favour of Tagit insulated bag, from Rob Fort stable. Bag sits nice and flat , wind no problem, it all helps. a couple of hottie bottles from the red shed filled and in freezer do not over fill , they s...

Was there a get together of the kfnz on the weekend of the 6th of this month ? at PapaAroha ?

As, AW has said. But there are things to consider Even experienced can get caught out. That is regardless of thinking ahead. Wind can always be the problem is . Strangely it starts from a puff, lol. The sky can be clear as but if the temps are up and land is hot then the evening wind can come up bad...

Also the 400 travels well without rudder unlike other yacks.

Keep at buying your bits quite often the gear gets sold on here, or ask if a person has what you want you just never know your luck . The 400 is a very good craft. Read reviews on here. most is subjective but comes in handy.

Another year slips by. Many thanks Rob / Janet and to all of those that helped out making the Rob Fort get together, one of a kind. Cheers Guys

Before I download App, I would like to ask those who are using this app how you are getting on with it ? Any problems to sort through . Easy enough to navigate for those not so great with modern tec, ect. $2.99 sounds cheap enough. Cheers

Show and form a trust with any 'horse' they shall then be your friend in time of trouble.

Just a thought Schecter , you say you have signal issues, is your squelch set properly ?

Schecter and Andrew take this up with 'Trident marine they are the agents for Cobra USA. Talk with Brent . When Brent failed to go into damage control for Cobra USA with my issue over the hh350, that is when I wrote to USA explaining the lack of enthusiasm for Cobra NZ to get it sorted. I would be v...

Hi Andrew , I have had two pins on two clasp rust out HH350 and they call them submersible marine/ salt water.. I explained this to trident marine. As both units were not that old i considered a free replacement to be available due to the unit having a two year warranty along with being made for a m...

Welcome genie4x4. Like most coastal places you will have a bit of a lift at times. Pays to be ready,.So when you get your yak head out in conditions you may normally go fishing in. Take no gear with you except safety gear, radio, life jacket. Go and have a good play. If a wave small or otherwise lif...
