Hi lads,
I have organised a trip to breaksea and dusky sounds in feb 2017, was wondering if anybody had been there and could suggest where to hunt. Not asking for spot x more like which maps we should download, and what general areas we should look at. Also at that time of year should we be hunting high or low, southern faces etc.
Thanks Mohawk.
Yep well i did advetise it on here 6 months ago and only got 2 guys coming from the forum, will be an awesome trip hunting diving and fishing for 5 days.... bring on feb.
If it is as good as i expect i may organise another trip next year.
5 days isn't long enough for me, I need 14 days at least. I know it well in there. Where do I start, will give you a rough idea as I was hunting in there before we had a hand held GPS.
Breaksea: Beach harbour, First cove, second cove up too lake, third cove, the river 3k before the head of the Vancouver arm and the head of Vancouver arm.
Broughton arm: the first bay heading in on the right, the big river and the head of Broughton arm.
Wet jacket arm: Oki island rivers to the north, Moose lake, Shy lake, the head of Wet jacket.
Dusky: Cascade cove up to lake, mikes river, Shark cove, Henry burn, Pender burn.
It's my favourite place in NZ, have a ball and don't forget the bug spray.
The forum will need a report so take plenty of pic's, look forward to story on your return. Good Luck
I've organised the trip I delegate the report writing and photos to Barefoot and Philipo.!!!Quote:
