    But what do you do with frozen fish or do you smoke all you cant eat fresh and freeze that?

    Hey Gibo, do they add any spice/flavour to the smoked marlin in NZ?

    The stuff I’ve eaten in Mauritius had none. It was ok, but after a bit you soon had had enough of it. Might be just my tastebuds as biltong I can eat all day and nigh.
    It's all fun and games till Darthvader comes along
    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    Over the hill again today with @ROKTOY and boys for another snapper slaying session.
    Weather fantastic......actually too good I was baking in the sun and praying for breeze.
    Boys caught fish....lots of fish.
    Chilly bin was too small again
    Average size was down a bit on last trip but still plenty there and on the chew.

    Cheers Cam for a cracker trip out on the water. You couldn't have asked for a better day, sunny, calm, plenty of fish. Watching the boys hauling in the Snaps was cool. Had to give my boy a hand to wind in the fish he thinks HE caught. Filled the chilly bin very quickly. Finished the day with a nice feed of fresh Gurnard for tea. Grandma came and got her Rig fillets this morning. An Excellent day.

    Got the ferry our to the boulder bank, with Lis her ma and a bloke from work and his family... Got there at low tide baited and cast.. Pecked to death by spotties and small brim... Repeat repeat etc.. Wait for the tide to push the bigger one's will come with current... Someone said... Possibly me... Anyway tide came in fish size increased marginally sun beat down on us.. Small people got scratchy so after a kg of squid and some salted pillies I admitted defeat.. Packed up phoned our ride home... No keepers but nice day out

    Last weekends dive turned it on. Started slow at motiti chasing snapper with only small fullas coming in on both kina and fish burley. Wind died off so decided to shoot out wider despite the swell. Was about halfway out to schooner and was inky blue 25m plus vis.

    Few deeper 20m-ish drops below the Massive schools of koheru the size of kahawai got us into the Kings. Got tied up pretty good by one king which took a bit of sorting at depth. Very quickly filled the bin then stopped shooting and just enjoyed some absolutely magic scenic diving.
