A good start to the week, with a couple of reef trips around Motiti with good results. We’re still not finding much in the shallower water, but around the 50/60m has picked up, they do take a bit of finding sometimes though.
Wednesday we had a pickup from Mayor, and stopped at the Pinns on the way, also some good fishing, snapper as well as tarakihi, with delightful barracuda to balance things up.
The wind picked up and while Saturday was good, Sunday was just too much. We had a few caught around Karewa, but pulled the pin early, it is supposed to be enjoyable, not an endurance test.
What more can I say but once again simply magic mate, The Northpower Rotorua boy’s head back inland with a bounty of fresh fish and memories worthy of a book.
We have utilised your services on a few occasions and each time has been memorable taking home more than our fair share of fish, but this trip was exceptional.
I have been charter fishing with various parties and skippers but never have I been on an overnighter to Mayor and been home by 1130am with six plus hours of fishing left and chilly bins full of Snapper and Tarakihi, needless to say you had 10 very happy Northpower fisho's.
Cheers to Ben and Wade for their assistance, and for creating a little healthy competition amongst us, and for putting up with Les and his goofy photo poses all good fun mate, what a fantastic trip.
In fishing terms Brett you’re all keepers that more than measure up, look forward to the next trip or ten.
Kindest Regards
