Def. skinny had a second pot to make sure:sick:
Well the fishing was skinny for us today! Out early set hook lines good swell running . Set baits soaking and burley good current everything you need ....except for the fish...sharked to death two spikies rest grey boys more user friendly but a lot more teeth.
Calmed off so pulled hook line to our first cluster f//k. Went deep set hook line and burley again less sharks less every thing ...wind kicked up ..pulled hookline to our second cluster fk ...headed in out of the weather pulled hook line #2 tiny carrots and grey boys ...
Then my phone rings some how it has made its way from the bow dash board to under the floor mid way down the boat! Summed up our day nicely! Pulled the pin went ticky touring spotting rays yarning etc . Not a bad day out not our best day out ...thanks VC just for a chance to wet a line! Next time mate next time
Anyone using this App
windy.com
I only had it a few days - but looks good for monitoring wind direction to assist finding calm spots here in Sounds
Yep as above.
Its pretty bloody good most of the time for me .sometimes its off but usually only when I am trying to pick a hole in the wind and the hole is off a bit.....did just what it said it would this morning. Nelson shit okiwi shit dellaware ok.

Not sure for SI, but the app WindDan is pretty good uphere.
This is some what true - no sand flies, generally good weather, etc.... so normally nice to sit outside.
Although the Fucking flies can sometimes piss you right off, but then the wind gets up and they go away........ and then the fishing is crap...... so get another latte... (personally still can't work out all the coffee options up here. Flat white. Simple.)

Well she did wash the boat while I cleaned the fush
My eldest son got a 25lb snapper and the kingfish was 77cm 15lb caught on an 8inch spanner with a hook tied behind. Go the red necks!

My son was holding the king fish but he also caught that snapper.
Well I've been hearing a lot of stories about tuna lately. Apparently the bay is 'teaming' with them.
So off we went early this morning right out to the middle with high hopes.....
Towed 5 of these around for 5 hours...

Not a single bite from a tuna. Turns out the bay is teaming with them about as much as it has been teaming with rain lately!! [emoji23]
Did manage a decent kingfish and a few kahawai though so all was not lost.

Dad was chuffed actually as it gave him a bloody decent scrap [emoji106]
We had a few unwanted visitors at the filleting table today a sure sign they are in their protein phase.

Have been in Keneperu for the last couple days. Windy.
Staying with Sneeze and his wife and trying to catch a few fish.
2 small snaps and a Gurnard so far that we ate last night.
Today we got schooled badly. Broken lines on mussel farms. Rays and have gone thru a few bags of pillys.
Landed a huge Eagle Ray on dark.
Seen a nice kingi follow in a small Ray I hooked today but didn't have anything ready to throw his way.
Love it up here and only thing that would make it better is some better luck with the rods.

Went out from Raglan on Waitangi day. After a 1 hour wait at the boat ramp managed to get out.
Fishing was really slow and we just about pulled the pin early. Then it came on and we managed a good bin.
Saw a sea snake too.

That’ll be the warmer sub tropical currents bringing them down. You should have scooped it.
I tried but it slipped out of the net. Probably not a bad thing in hindsight. I can see the headline." Idiot fisherman bitten by sea snake":D
so good to see great fishing!
Reckon I'll get out tomorrow with the weed whacker
