Looked like Dad, Mum and bubs (bottom to top) brought junior over to teach him about boats.......They...

Wasnt your bait/boat big enough?............:thumbsup:

Good question. One thing I have noticed with the majority of people jigging on the charter boat is that they all use the same technique. Drop to the bottom, jig rapidly to the surface then repeat. I...

Doing midweek charters is cool especially when the boat is only half full and the punters invite the crew to catch a fish or 2.............A few rat kings came onboard and were released. A couple of...

It entirely depends on the circumstances. Every single guy on the boat was an experienced fisherman. The only assistance they required and asked for was when the inevitable school sharks turned up...

It was a good day off the Kaipara. Firstly, all the guys on the charter were experienced fisho's and they didnt require any help for most of the time. It gave the skipper and I a chance to catch a...

If anyone picks...

I agree, thats fishing........

But having fished the West Coast off the Kaipara for over 45 years and have the same thing happen every year during spawning season and noted the effect that the...

Two days fishing and the comparison between them......

Sat 2nd Nov. Charter of 20 fisho's. Out over the Kaipara bar and anchored up in 53m. Sounder showed fish all the way out. Headed back over...

Yep, it was the biggest Great White I have ever seen in 45 years of fishing off the Kaipara, the last 12+ years working on a charter boat . Estimated length was 14-16 feet. Seen plenty of 8-12 foot...
