So much for the early start to try and make things happen. Just woke up and I missed weigh in!

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

No no Fringsy was the man who braved the tough chb seas. I'd rather let him tell you about his catch. But he told me about the gate on Sunday. I weighed a modest kahawai and couda. It was a frustrating weekend.

It seems you had to be fishing about a 20mtr stretch of Awatoto to get em in the weekend. Funny how it works sometimes! My first 4 or 5 baits saw strikes, before it went all quiet, and they were on a very lite bite.

Re: Early starts

They were at East Clive Saturday morning too, but man they were shy. Never had so many drag and drops from Kwai before.

Thats why we stopped chasing kahawai and went for moki instead, conditions were bang on for moki, surprised there were no snapper caught Sunday, looked very fishy

I saw a couple of moki caught next to me at TeAwanga but couldnt fool them with cray baits. A big parore too.
I went home after a 4am start and fell asleep waking at 12 .30pm. Can I keep the five snapper I have for the next weigh in?

Re: Early starts

Bring them to me. I'll look after them.
