We fished Aropaoanui Saturday morning, good size swell coming in but it was easily fishable and the water was clean. We were getting some good hits but sadly nothing was sticking... about lunchtime some big clumps of weed started coming from up north somewhere and effectively ruined any chance of staying there.
Drove round to Haumoana stopping in at all the beaches on the way and only saw Sue Lawson at Gill road who reported she'd been there all day for not even a bite. The water locally was dirty in close, decided Awatoto was the cleanest of the local beaches, fished there for no result.
Couldn't make it out this morning and had no way of getting to the weigh in, hope you all had better luck than I.

The weigh-in was a bit of a non-event. Only a few turned up. Four little snappers weighed. The biggest of those was 1.2kg, caught by James Parahi at Le Quesne Road. The other three were from Whakaki by Dion and Kane. Duncan weighed a conger of 8kg plus, caught at Blacks. One tiny gurnard. At least one red cod, a handful of lemons and a few kahawai made up the numbers.

Well a few snapper is better than no snapper. Better results than I thought there would be. Good on them.

Sorry we missed it. Lets hope the next one is similar as we will be unable to fish that too. Then it can swing into kingfish mode for when we can again compete. Good luck to all on the next field weekend.

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