The last couple of weeks certainly saw a wide range of fishing and weather conditions. From excellent to extremely hard, windy to flat calm. Quite often within a day or two of each other.
We’ve been doing well in the deeper water on tarakihi, with the odd snapper and trevally as well, mainly due to the offshore winds keeping the warmer currents out further. Consequently the snapper haven’t shown up in close in any quantity yet.
Town Pt, Karewa and the middle ground have all had their moments but been more inconsistent due to some strong currents than the 50m plus areas.
We got one Hapuku trip in, which started well, with mainly gemfish on the first drifts then increasing current slowed things down again
Still, overall, pretty good. There’s plenty of fish around, it just comes down to conditions on the day and at present they’re very volatile.
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
The Northpower Rotorua Boys
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
Thanks Brett for taking us out yesterday, most had a great day especially Peter who caught the big king fish.
