    I see no one is putting their hand up for slaying it today

    What i can tell you is that my mate who drives a water taxi dropped a longline at 30m out off Adele today and came up with 6 thumpas

    None were weighed but from the photo id say two were definitely over 15pd, one would have been pushing 20. He said it was only down for 40min as he didn't have long.

    I am going to try get out mon if the weather holds, got a few sheep to cut up tomorrow.

    Now you will have to excuse me for the next bit. I know its off topic and the source is crap, and its twig & tweet but when i saw it today I immediately thought of you

    Apparantly cat shit is doing more damage than our flounder nets

    Okiwi, out to 40 meters, gurnard only , flood ran out before snaps came on the chew, motor worries so called a day rather than fish out going.

    Biggest carrot I’ve ever seen went 51 cm, mate went to pass fished it midday blazing sun, kingi on the chew, boated 6 kept one, no sign of any sharks.

    Motor sorted thankfully , for getting home and being a simple fix.
    Nil durum volenti !!

    Out from stevens bay this morning to 35m behind adele island. Got a bit distracted when we saw the pod of orca (photos in the here and now thread)

    Beautiful blue water, 18.5deg so towed around 5 tuna lures for a while even though we think it is still a bit early.



    Released a couple of undersized kingies, but no tuna. Pretty sure it won't be long before someone hits some.

    Did a bit of drift fishing for one snap and a couple of nice sized cod. Scooped up the long line for 6 more snaps.



    All in all a awesome day on the water making memories

    16-17 degrees off Hoki and I got tubes. Must be different behaviour in the bay compared to off here?
