Another week of mainly good fishing.
We’re still working the area outside Motiti for the bottom fishing as it’s been the most consistent. Thursday we only shifted twice all day, with mainly tarakihi ticking along all day. Friday we went back to the same spots and had a lot slower day. Tried other , shallower areas but no go anywhere.
Our overnighter saw a few snapper caught around Mayor that evening with good tarakihi fishing, minus a few to the tax collector[a 2.5m Mako].
We also got 6 albacore and had a marlin jumping by the boat so a double bonus. The drift fishing was slow, just a few bluenose.
Sat/Sun was similar, with a nice hapuku, bass and small gemfish caught before the N.E. slop got the better of some of the crew and we headed home.

Brett, just a note to thank you and Wade for looking after us and helping with the filleting (well.... doing most of the fish).
Every one passes on thier thanks, and wishes you the best for the season.

They had a great time and a special thanks to Brett for making the day so enjoyable for them!!! Jordan has not stopped talking about his day out fishing and has been proudly showing the photos of his day to everyone he comes into contact with!! They would love to go out again next year if we return to the BOP if Brett would have them on board again!!
Regards,
Lynne.
Just a quick email to thank you for a nice fishing trip today. Very enjoyable. Weather was kind to us and everyone caught fish.
Hopefully will return to the Mount again next year, in which case I will check you out for another trip.
Regards
