It took a few days for the swell to settle after the cyclone had slid down the east coast, but we got out on Friday and found that the snapper had moved in.
We had good catches around the western side of Motiti, nice sized fish too, with a few trevally, kahawai and tarakihi as well.
An evening fish on the way to Mayor also provided some nice snapper up to 6kg, until sundown, no moon meant nothing much after dark.
The next day around Mayor was also good, steady fishing with snapper and tarakihi despite a lot of current running.
Sunday was beautiful, no current, perfect conditions, but a slower day everywhere on the snapper, and we couldn’t find tarakihi at all.
Normally the deeper water is consistent now but not at the moment . Fickle fish.
Hi Brett,
This was a trip to remember , the company, fishing , and the way we were looked after was second to none . and I have done a lot of trips ,
I would like to thank You Brett and your Son Ben , Ben was an AWESOME deck hand , we didn’t need to do anything but fish and no matter where you took us there was fish there ,
The jigging for Kingi’s was un-real most of us have never seen this done , only on TV , but to do Jigging, hell yes it was fun.
Once again Brett thank you and son Ben for a trip that we will talk about for a long time
This is from the… BPT pig hunting Whanau
Cheers
