We tossed up on going to Lake Tutira but bomber insisted this place was good.

I'm not much good on translations but to my knowledge 'Tutae' means 'shit' in maori and 'kuri' means 'dog'? I may be wrong but if I'm right we fished for over an hour in "shitdog" river:D

Back to work now.;) Cheers for the road trip bomber. A bad days fishing beats a good day at work!!:D:cool:

Did a bit of research on the name @Dundee.
Many years ago people from Ngati Kahungunu from Wairoa heard there was heaps of food to found around Porangahau..They headed there but found wasn't much food to be had, so turnt around and headed home hungry. They turnt up at Hikaweras pa near Omahu.
Hikawera didn't want them to return to Wairoa hungry, so killed 70 dogs to feed the travellers.
They cooked them in the ovens at a place by the river called Te Umukuri (ovens where dogs were cooked).They threw the offal from the dogs in the river b4 the feast.
Tutaekuri - the offal of the dogs..

Last time I was there there caught plenty of trout, should've bought my lucky trout spotting dog..good day tho 🖒🖒
