Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

Photos from my last trip with VC , he sharked and I photo'd sunsets , to dark and sloppy for snapper photos.. but YES we binned a feed!
Cheers VC. Go well tonight , you of all people deserve a boomer of a night!

Special mention to @Pengy who sorted me a bit of wonderful camera kit. A huge thank you to you also!!

When I had cleaned boat and put it away, sorted gear etc then put the snaps in the fridge I filleted the rig and threw the backbone and skin/trimmings in the chillybin and left it fair in the middle of the kitchen floor as I still had to have a shower and go to bed and it was nudging 1am.
When i came home from work the next day it was gone so assumed the wife had delt with it......she had by putting it outside
Found it just now

I have a pretty strong stomach for disgusting/smelly shit but OH MY GOD THAT WAS BAD!!!!

Washed my hands a couple of times,cleaned under my nails, cut my nails, washed my hands again and they still stink of rotten rig

Any of you buggers keen for the morning?
Drop long line and troll lures for a couple hours.

mee neither but I think you may have been "mis-diagnosed" @Pengy surely it would be "bird flu" !!!

How'd you get on @veitnamcam? I went out of cable bag 6am yesterday for a dive, drop the net and a quick fish. Not very fishy where I was. Few moki around and a heap of small Kina. Few schools of hearings but nothing worth shooting. Nothing on the rod except losing a lure to a barracuda. Net got fucked by a string ray and it was time to come home. Bit of a shitter of a day but better than sitting at home. Now I'm looking at somewhere else to drop the net. I'm thinking over near rabbit island.

didnt go....then planned to go this evening with a mate .....now it is blowing its guts out.

I will try to upload a google earth pic for ya.

@sambnz

If you like rig id be putting your net here overnight, should get some snaps too.



there is a bar that runs right across there from rabbit island to the blind channel and if you set just on the seaward bank its usually good for rig and a few snaps...if targeting snaps Id head more in front of the island.

50 feet from Rangi, and have had 10 boats come past between us and shore with the hammer down, all over 15 knots, on the plane. One would have been doing 35 and was 2 boat lengths away as he passed. There's a marked channel 200 meters away and these cocks just have to buzz you at anchor.
