Another 1 day fishing week. The blow all weekend trick is getting to be a bit of a drag. However, on our day out on Wednesday, we had another good trip on the fishing side of things. The weather was good, but the swell was bigger than expected, and we had a few sickies, and when the numbers not fishing started to increase, we decided to head home early.
Everyone had a good amount of tarakihi, some snapper also, so there were no complaints, and we were early enough to miss the traffic.
Thank you for a great day yesterday. The trip was a surprise getaway for Robs 60th birthday and none of us had done a charter trip before nor can we fish for Terakihi as snapper, trevally and kingfish are target species in the Coromandel.
A most enjoyable day

Good afternoon Brett,
Thanks for the memorable trip on Tuesday. This was a great experience once again and i have picked up some more tips which i can carry forward, your knowledge is extensive and you don\'t mind passing this on. Not only was the fishing great but i meet new people and have been lucky to share this experience with them. Even Kent the visitor from Australia enjoyed himself and the chilly bins were full of beautiful Terakihi which all the families have enjoyed eating.
I look forward to joining you again very soon on the boat on another trip.
Thanks again till then. Theo

Hi Brett,
I enjoyed my fishing during my last trip to Tauranga. The fishes caught was really delicious...Taratiki. I couldn't wait to eat them, so, I cooked a few fillets at the Bay Palm Motel where I stayed. I brought the rest back to Perth and my family just loved them.
Just a note that you should be aware of so that you can advise all future Australians who fish with you and want to bring the fishes home. The fishes MUST be headless, gilled and gutted. Remember, must not have heads. I decleared my fishes and the first questions asked was whether I removed the head (which I did) and since my fishes were also gutted and gilled, I could bring in ALL(including the fillets).
Best wishes for the season and happy fishing.
Regards,
