Thread: Advice for Pureoras

I'm not after anyone's honey hole or particular spot x, but if anyone who is familiar with the hunting in that area wouldn't mind flicking me a PM with a quick steer on areas worth investigating or avoiding that would be most appreciated.

General plan will be to car camp (although open to suggestions otherwise) and use a quad to get a bit further afield then split up for day hunts (I've heard there are plenty of decent tracks in there). I will have the dog and both the others are relatively experienced bush hobbits.

Happy to reciprocate on info sharing in the lower North Island or spearfishing up north.

Cheers,
Adam

With your luck mate - you could find a 12 point royal in Auckland!! Never hunted there myself, but you will need a club to beat off all the hunters from north of the Bombays this weekend
