Nice pic. Just found your text, better late than never I guess, I take it you were down the southern end again?
Was taken out to Whirinaki yesterday, plenty of KY about and 1 solitary red cod...

Gee Aro looks great. I wish it wasnt such a drive for me. Bet Mohaka was good too. Ive just got my truck back from the garage and so flew out to for a fish last night with great anticipation.
The sea was awsome last night at Pourere beach too but would you believe it... full of bl**dy weed. Couldnt figure that out its been calm for a few days there. I was really disapointed.
Went to Kairakau Beach for the remainder of the avo/evening and coinditions were great there too but caught diddly squat. Good to hear fish were caught along Whirinaki maybe something is actually out there. Hope the upcoming feild weekend throws up similar conditions

There was supposed to be a long line demonstration at Awatoto this morning, we turned up, the demonstrator didn't. However, I got chatting with an elderly enthusiast, who had a torpedo already in the water and offered a little assistance with the retrieve. One small shark, two beautiful fat kahawai and four huge red cod. He wanted the kahawai for bait and gave us the cod and the small shark.

I must say eating this fresh, the entire family were most impressed, and they are no strangers to gurnard and snapper. A nice delicate flaked fish that was full of flavour. The four cod weighed in at nearly six kilos (twelve pounds). Lightly floured and fried till the fillets just started to brown and you couldn't better the dish, just add seasoning and bread and butter.

Think that was my mate John Marshall?. Plenty of Snapper getting caught over Whirinaki Tikis tho. Huge schools of Kahawai. Off for another go now.
