After a couple of slower days around the Motiti area, we gave the Pinnacles a look, the first in some time.
There was some current running, not a good sign, and the fishing reflected it. We did catch fish, mainly tarakihi and some small snapper, but eventually gave it away and moved in a bit closer and had a short hit of tarakihi which topped up the tallies.
Not enough to repeat though. So back to Motiti on Saturday. Tried a few marks inside the island for nothing much, but outside was a lot better, so in conjunction with having a pod of dolphins escort us out and nice settled weather, a good trip.
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.
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
