We had a quieter week, partly due to a couple of poisoned fingers. That might teach me to put some antiseptic on when these things happen.

We got the weekend in though, after the very strong westerlies had eased. They did generate a lot of current however, which meant a lot of reanchoring, but we did surprisingly well, with some near limit catches of tarakihi.

Paul, decky for the day, also got a nice snapper and a good kingie[which he shared with the crew].

The sign was better than it has been for a while, and the tarakihi were definitely more bitey.

I  had great expectations for Sunday, but it was  a lot harder, the current was more unpredictable, and we were swinging off the marks all day.

Frustrating, as the day was beautiful.
