Super awesome turnout as spots to fish were few and far between.
Scoped out most spots from boundary to boundary as my buddy has a new (to him) surf and so most of Sat was spend sliding through mud wherever possible. Cheers JT, awesome driving skills.
Fishing was slow and only saw a few non target species but learned a lot directly and indirectly about fishing the place. Especially the match the hatch rule of thumb.
Wandered back to see Scuzzy - Mark Graham from Action Tackle - about 1 am Sunday and fished the spot he was at as his neighbours' had long gone night nights. At that point Mark had a couple of small ish moki (I joke - they looked like comp contenders)
I got a text from Panser on Sunday saying that Mark won. Certainly hope so - He put in some yards
and maintained a good sense of humour right to the end.
All in all a great weekend. I don't care for the competition aspect so much but an excuse to fish across 24 hours and the chance to go to one of the most spectacular and wild coastlines in New Zealand is always welcomed
8/10 on the churrr scale.
