Gidday Neil, The BoP isn't fishing very well at all, at least not from about Pikowai north. Papamoa has been plagued by sea lettuce for some weeks and even long-liners are not getting anything. I got a report a few days ago that down Pikowai way they are only getting sharks. Traditionally fishing starts to get underway here mid February so we can only keep our fingers crossed. Hope this helps and that you do have some luck.
