    I am coming up your way in a couple weeks for a shoot at cable Bay.
    I will tow the boat up for a service and a fish if your keen?

    Rugrat was pretty chuffed with his effort, couple hundred metres off Oakura.

    Haven't posted for a while, & been caught up with relocating to the UK for the big OE. Gone a month & already getting withdrawals...

    So here's a couple photos from my final sessions on the water before I left... Christmas morning, killer day in Wellington Harbour- snapper, kahawai, trevally, terikihi, blue cod all made their way to the boat, but after 5hrs no sign of the kingi I was really hoping for... That is until we were about to head home for Christmas lunch. Pulled in all the lines. Literally, as I reached for the last rod to pull that in as well, it bent right over & started screaming. Came in just shy of 10kg.
