    I suck at snapper fishing!

    After getting great advice from Cam and Mikee and everyone else in Nelson I have thrashed the water to foam this morning and not a bite.
    Sneeze reckons I am jinxed☺
    Still a beaut day all the same and away to Kenepuru tonight for another go at the snaps and a pig or deer.

    Yup new McLay 5.2 Munsey. No pics as yet.
    Happy with boat. Goes well and quiet with a 4 stroke. Almost to big for me.
