The big tides are still having an effect on the fishing, with very strong currents from the East continuing. A bit frustrating as the fish are here, but bite times a short and sweet.
We took a group of regulars out for a kingfish/Hapuku trip and got a couple of nice kingies and a mixture of gemfish and a Hapuku, losing a good few due to the inconsistent drifts, with wind and swell against the current yet again.
We’ve started picking up skippies though, so the game fishing is getting closer with the weekend’s wild weather from the NE likely continuing the improvement.
It certainly stirred up the harbour, with a starboard beacon and a port buoy at the entrance both badly damaged by the storm.
They had a great time and a special thanks to Brett for making the day so enjoyable for them!!! Jordan has not stopped talking about his day out fishing and has been proudly showing the photos of his day to everyone he comes into contact with!! They would love to go out again next year if we return to the BOP if Brett would have them on board again!!
Regards,
Lynne.
Thank you for a great day yesterday. The trip was a surprise getaway for Robs 60th birthday and none of us had done a charter trip before nor can we fish for Terakihi as snapper, trevally and kingfish are target species in the Coromandel.
A most enjoyable day
