    Got wet in Kaikoura yesterday for the first time since the quake. Interesting drive up. Not many cars on the road through that way. Had a dive in between the traffic lights at the slips and then another dive at the racecourse reef. Scared a few crays off as per usual and shot a few butters. Got two big boys around the 500mm mark which we cooked up for dinner tonight. Primo. Didn't see a heap of Paua around, but I wasn't really looking. The ones I did see were big buggers though.

    I lost count of how many caps I have lost while driving boats.

    Hows the Gamefish side of things down your way? Havent heard much from that area yet, but numbers are starting to look good up north. We lost a Stripy, a Blue and a Mahimahi over Christmas and then landed a Stripy, a Blue Shark and some good Albacore.

    Not a lot happening but Murc bay is ticking aling, we'll head up to the aldy rise then maybe up to the ammo dump. Water is still cold and green out to 700 really

    Sweet hopefully get into something. We got into water of 22.6 out close to 1000m off Northland, but found there was a ridiculously cold current running past or upwelling at the kings, only 15 degrees there
