Another couple of days out last week, and it was down to town Pt again, on the basis of "if it isn't broken, don't fix it".
The Friday was steady fishing, no bursts of action, ticking along steadily on the tarakihi, although a couple of good john dory that Colin pulled up were a nice bonus.
Saturday was initially slower, and we covered more ground than Friday, with the previous days marks not really doing it. We gave one mark a go that had a little sign on it, and after a while they came on strongly, which made the day.
It's surprising just how much the fish move around an area from day to day, and it pays to keep looking and trying different spots rather than assume that because they weren't there yesterday they won't be today.

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.

Hi, Brett,
Just wanted to say, on behalf of the House of Travel Boys , a big thanks to you and your deckie for such a great time. The boys loved every minute of it, oh, I guess, apart from the few chunderers the first nite. I know we’ll certainly recommend your charters to others who are interested in a great day out. The boys got 2 bags of fish each to take home, which was a bonus.
Thanks again.
Cheers
Paul
