The snapper don't know where the car park is!
Sometimes it is better to travel than to arrive.

I thought for a minute that second pic was a spot I've been trying to get to but alas the sand is the wrong colour.

Looks nice is it in NZ?

First one is a trick shot.

This should explain it.....Portland Island

The second pic is Herbertville Beach on a neat gurnard day a year ago.

Seems deepest where we are here by the fence. Could be the reason. Ill dig up a couple more pics of the spot.

I reckon thats the spot and we have caught gurnard there. Its the only feature in that area. Spooky when a big swell is running as the waves jump up at the last minute.

The way it stays consistent makes me think that it is "the" spot too.
See you there in the summer Jono.

I have seen moki get pulled out down past the rocks where the gravel road starts to climb up the hill and have given that area a crack at dark with mussel and crabs but with no intrest but have seen with my own eyes something else come from there hahaha.

Im sure we will catch up Gary
