LOL!!! Forgot about that.

Haven't had a good run on them this year either. Been very quiet on the rig for me.
My boy has had a few tho.

You been out?
Actually heard of a few snapper caught lately at Rossi beach but could be just rumour.

I was talking to the shrimp boat captain on the weekend. He says they got in to some Albies the other day north of Haast.

Got me keen on going for a look in a few weeks.

Hey @R93 the commercial boys have been weighing in heaps of albies up here at talleys. Word is most of them are coming from the w.coast, average weight is down with fish of 2.5kg but there has been lots caught. So once you are back from slaying massive snaps off the rocks it'd b well worth ya while getting out there id say.
Good luck.

Tight lines on both fronts !!

Pretty much what I heard as well. Cheers.

They usually show up to where I can easily access in my boat mid Feb. Doubt I will slay many snaps up the sounds but we will give it a nudge. Love chasing the Albies around Haast and then topping up with a dive and bottom fish.

The ol mans best mate caught a goodly number of snapper from shore with a kontiki at both Bruces bay and Jacksons during the roar last year when he got sick of chasing scrubbers around in the scrub.

Going to check that out this year.

No snaps where we are at this stage but have had a few well legal blue cod and 2 massive Gurnard. Had a stag on the beach this morning and there is pig rooting in a lookout picnic spot behind the batch.

Had a dive to check a broken mooring and was surprised to see a healthy population of undersized scollops. Seen some huge ones as well but maybe the ban is having an effect in a positive way. Don't normally see many scollops where we are.

Dog is having a ball swimming in the salt and annoying everything that moves.
He has locked up on perfect points on a shag and seagull so I spose that something.
