Might be a good idea to strap some skis on in the future......

Hi HO Hi HO, its off to work we go.........

I reckon half day of dropping jigs into that lot would have you at the chiro for a few weeks........

I was there April 05, the Fletcher Bay Lodge is only NZD 14 per night. Just down the road on a rock ledge there is a plaque fixed indicating that this is the spot where the NZ record kingy was captured (around 52kgs). Snapper galore, basically anything you can catch on bait you can easily catch on plastic or fly. Im planning a trip there again Mar-Apr next year, very cheap trip 10 days cost me AUD1000 thats including airfare and hire car between two. The bay is about 3.5 hours from Auckland, you take the Aerolinas Argentinas flight ($190.00 inc. tax if you book early) at 9.30am from SYD which gets in about 2:00pm their time pick up the car, and you get the last 2-3 hours on the rocks if your keen to get a snapper for dinner.

I will be moving to Sydney before september (my office in ACT is moving to Nth Ryde), we will have to catch up for an ale or three and look at this closely if a little cross-eyed. Cheers

Count me in........who would organise?

Cheers mate I'll give it a bash.

Going to Syd for another occasion, sneaking the gear in the car . Has there beeen much surface ativity in close on the north shore?

Trip to Sydney this weekend, have not fished these spots in years, anyone done any good lately. Mainly spinning for surface critters.......

Yeh, looks good when the weather settles. The water is still super warm for this time of year, I reckon the old silver snouts will be having a lot of fun after the surf slows down, dig out the beach worms. Going to hit Merries Beach, Snapper point in the next weekend or two, maybe two looking at the BOM report. The kings and snapper all going well should be in full swing.

This was April last, they might be a little behind the times the Kiwis but they know what works

Took an ABU Toby spoon.......remember them?

If you see that kind of crap, dont ignore it, report it, thats one good thing moblies are 4. Number is on the back of your fishing licence. Dob the Bas@#$rds in.

Loomis 7' Crankbait with an ABU 6500C3, 6kg braid.........does everything.

Yeh, if you must. .........use a Ludrick outfit along a breakwall tie on with Baitmate or wrap them up in newpaper with heaps of salt the night before. Bream, ludrick, Drummer love them...just think these fish probably spend half there life trying to get them out. They wont knock back a freeby.
