About AMac
Basic Information
About AMac
- Biography:
- Currently living in Auckland as this is where my work has taken me, but my heart resides in Pelorus Sound! So fortunate that mum and dad built a Bach there in 1972 which my wife and I now own and our extended family all enjoy. Boat only access means mine is in a shed in Havelock so have taken up Yak fishing up here with moderate success so far. Not an enormously experienced hunter, 8 times to Stewart Island, a bit in southern alps and Marlborough - Lived in Wellington for 12 years and did well in the Rimutaka's an Ruahines. Getting out much from Auckland not quite as easy. Enjoy reloading and heading to the range as always meet good guys to have a yarn with.
- Location:
- Auckland
- Interests:
- Hunting, Boat and Kayak Fishing, Scuba Diving, cooking - Running to keep old legs fit.
- Occupation:
- GM of a Property Development and Modular Construction Company.

This works for me, shackle the main line or chain to the bottom of the anchor, tie a breakaway to the mainline or chain to the top of your anchor. When the anchor snags the breakaway does its job and...

Slow jigging and vertical soft baiting is how I catch most of my fish. Honestly, I don't think the lure design matters that much. Colour maybe important, but I'm not totally convinced. That said, I...
