We have speared a few ,we never bothered taking rods into the hut ,like most others we were happy with just mucking around diving on the paua patch.Also forgot to mention as a lot of the hunting is up close a good face veil while you are over watching a spot is a winner ,l have a old camo Browning duck hunting cap with built in drop down veil ,l have used for years just on hunts down there & making sure you have any rattle points taped up,fixed on your gear.
Also if you have not taken a White Tail before you will regret not taking the skin ,they make a beautiful rug so make sure you knives etc are up for it,also meant to add you are heading in at a pretty good time with the weather they have been having for getting a nice eater so make sure you are geared for looking after the meat properly as well.Try to grab the front seat & have the camera ready for some great shots as you come in to land ,it is a beautiful bit of the world we are lucky to have relatively easy access to.
