Getting on the ferry now so will be home tomorrow. Will flick you a PM.
@Joe Schmo and the stingray are on the hunt as well, was thinking about heading down to the Owen and a look into Rotorua…should I bring some salmon pellets and meet you folks up at Argyle ?
Yes I’m joking …I know it’s in bad taste ..but it tickled my humour
Will check with the bloke from over the sea and see if he would like to have a go at a competition fish and meet a few folks from the forum…we could splash a few lures into Rotoiti as a back up!
Prawns or shrimps seemed to be the go last year Joe but just incase its dirty the boys and I dug a heap of worms today [emoji3]
We will be pretty easy to find if you do come up. Going to camp there tomorrow night and head back friday.
Bloody tasty fish in that lake and its a pretty cool area. There is always the rivers too if the lakes arnt working [emoji41]

The soft baits didn't attract much attention today.I changed to a silver fire fox and had four hits and landed this wee bow.
Number 88 on the spin gear this year.Been a tuff year with the local river dirty more often than clean.

Finished the year off with a lovely brown hen fish weighing in at 7-3/4lb today. A bit pissed I didn't manage a photo as I was thigh deep in a lake with water up to the bank edge and really needed 3 hands. Had a mate fishing not far away, so had a witness ;)
Dundee, take it from a former resident and High School lunch eater, that last lure is a Tokoroa Chicken. Often smeared with Pepsident tooth paste and used to great effect a short bike ride out of town at the Twin lakes on the road to Mangakino. I am not sure whether they still make Pepsident but it was the “attractant du jour” back in the days when young fellah’s fished the local streams with license less impunity. Ha ha ha ha half the fun was eating the bucket full of by catch of steamed red Koura on fresh bread with lots of butter. Fuck I miss the antics we got up to being a kid.
