    This is my fish that was caught on 6lb nylon using a black fury lure,fought the bugger for a while and the nylon snapped just as I got him to the bank. He was slower than me I dropped my rod that wasn't attached to him at this stage and jumped in the river and threw him out. If i came home with that story no one would of believed me if I didn't bring it home.

    Quite a few are being caught by club members up here at Tauranga lately. Day Night doesnt seem to matter.
    Might have to give it a go soon.

    A second crack at a black and white boarfish. I was new to spearing about 14 years ago when I saw a big boy off Kiama Aus. I'd settle for a NZ boary but I just never seem to see them.

    Are they herbivores DIB? Or can you catch them on bait?

    There are so many fish I would love to catch.. A big blue marlin would be flipping cool and would love to land a 30kg+ kingy on topwater gear.

    I'd be happy with a 30lb snapper off the beach or a good kingi.

    Not a big fisherman, but being a North Islander, i would love to catch a real heavy 'big' Blue Cod....love the taste of those fish!

    and of course, any marlin, YFT, Billfish, Sailfish.....anything of that ilk (or Elk)
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!
