We’ve been bopping around trying to find where the tarakihi have gone since the cyclone slid past a couple of weeks ago.
The snapper have been good in most places we’ve tried, but tarakihi not so much.
We went out to the Pinns on Tuesday , mainly snapper again, then came back to shallower water and did pick up some tarakihi there.
A day trip around Motiti on Saturday was more of the same.
An evening fish on the way to Mayor saw us have a good run on the snapper until after dark, and on Sunday we finally got onto tarakihi, good size and condition, with quite a few getting close to spawning. A 3m odd Mako, enjoyed a few of them too, really good to see, a beautiful animal.
The game fishing continues to be a standout season, with more tagging and landing of mainly striped marlin and mahimahi over the weekend.
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
Alan Chamberlain
Hi Daphne ,
Please thank Brett for a great trip the other day
We didn’t get on to the Kingi’s on this occasion but we do appreciate the conditions were against us and we know Brett did everything possible . Still, everyone got plenty of fillets to take home and we thoroughly enjoyed the day
You will see us again and we will recommend you

Good afternoon Brett,
Thanks for the memorable trip on Tuesday. This was a great experience once again and i have picked up some more tips which i can carry forward, your knowledge is extensive and you don\'t mind passing this on. Not only was the fishing great but i meet new people and have been lucky to share this experience with them. Even Kent the visitor from Australia enjoyed himself and the chilly bins were full of beautiful Terakihi which all the families have enjoyed eating.
I look forward to joining you again very soon on the boat on another trip.
Thanks again till then. Theo
