Frenchpass, back beach Nelson , westcoast as sounds like snapper are in. Kaikoura off the beaches ..hell if you can make Nelson I could swing a day off and either surfcast or take the boat out.

Bruce Bay or any river mouth close by, it's only a days drive from where you are
Beautiful place , wind swept beach, place to sit and clear the head.

A short video of my fishing trip the other day. Snapper caught on microjigs, soft baits and trolled hard body lures.

Nice video there @MightyBoosh good little haule

Cheers. The Mrs said go get us some fish, so I did! Her normal line is no more bloody fish! To be honest, at this time of year in Northland, you'd have to really try to NOT catch snapper.

Nice one.
How are you fishing the microjigs?
What sort of depth and bottom?
I fish up north a bit out of Tauranga Bay. Usually target snapper over shallow foul at the change of light with softies.

So,out of Monaco this morning got 6 keeper Brim,a visit from the harbour mistress.Then the brainwave, I'll take the boat to Appleby and run the motor in the river,couple of buckets to wash down the boat, job done.
Ha! Bloody council have stuck a chain across the access

We cant have people using common sense and saving water now can we
But they can and will carry on watering the cricket ground

Fish microjigs up to 30g just like softies. Casting forward on the drift. Usually 8 - 20 metres, sometimes 30 metres if I'm not drifting too fast, or too lazy to change jigs. Always over sand, foul is asking for trouble.

Big moochers in the shallow foul though bro

Yeah, too big. Bloody red couttas is what I call them

Anyone keen to give this one a go?
