Less than 2 weeks to the Moki 1000 and the fishing along the southern wairarapa coastline has been firing of late. There have been plenty of kahawai working very close to shore, the blue cod fishing has been nothing short of sensational, and of course the odd Blue Moki has been caught as well.
The weekend gone saw a couple of moki caught on saturday morning, unfortunately i was unable to tempt one due to the blue cod frenzy, 2 hours fishing resulted in some nice Blue Cod with more than 20 being released. the most notable thing was most of the cod were caught between 5 and 30 metres of the shoreline in the middle of moki territory. You do not need to be a avid caster or fishermen to catch fish here, my other half cast her own rod and caught her own fish.

Great fishing there Les mate. Wish i could make it. Im doing 6day weeks at the mo, really sucks sh!t at the mo. Can hardly get time to fish the home patch. Try and put it on the calendar for next year. Goodluck and i hope you get plenty of support, entrants, and great weather for the comp. Cheers Kane
Ive heard of blue cod being caught off the shore and caught a small one in Wellington harbour once but thats a pretty cool haul by any standards. Moki 1000 always sounds like a great comp but cant see myself doing it any time soon. Good luck to those who can though. Spoiled for choice eh.
