Sorry our call call sign `necessity`21 also.

Good Luck mate,hope you get on,Its funny the Canyons worked last year at this time so we will see?
-
Were heading out tomorrow,I was thinking of south towards the Southern Canyons,has anyone been out in the last couple of days?
-
thats what i thought,Im an ex pat kiwi that spent 13 years living in the far north deck handing and commercial fishing flounder so i didnt think I was mistaken.
i had plenty of cut fingers in my time from there razor sharp gills getting them out of my nets!!
-
Actually,can someone clarify,I have thought for my whole life blackfish were luderick??
-
forgive me for being wrong I thought they were the same fish,yes they were luderick.

I grew up in mangonui about an hour north of keri Keri,Blackfish or (parore) are regard as a pest to net fisherman and generally are not targeted
as they are regard as one of the less better eating fish readily available,i use to bycatch a hundred at time sometimes in my flounder net when we got big tides
and they came into the shallow water,some of those were easily 6kg to my memory.

We fished friday,we trolled the Fads ,Plonk holes,then down the shelf to the southern canyons for zeros,in 30 fathoms theres a lot of flying fish,the close fad is holding
a lot of small kingies,water temp was around 20.7 all the way down the shelf,all the other boats seemed to be fishing north with nothing coming over the radio,
im sure it wont be to long before its starts though.its a case of getting lures wet and eventually it will happen.
-
they are a standard table fish in NZ ,i have caught hundreds,mostly caught over the sand or close to beaches over there,they are an excellent table fish with nice white flesh!!

Blue.

we trolled all day on fridays for zeros 10km east of browns ,worked the shelf to the Kink,water was 23 in close to the 50 fathom mark after
that it was around 22.2,water was very dirty looking.plenty of birds and bait but not a fish seen,I think its hit and miss at the moment?
-
You shouldnt be running more than 6kg on that reel,thats all there rated to.
-
Definetly a fusilier,they are as common a livebait in nth queensland as a yakka down here in NSW,Spaniards love em!!
-
Unfortunately as much as we all want to give this idiot a piece of our mind the best way to manage him is to completely ignore him,if he gets no reaction out of anyone whatsever
then hopefully he will get bored and turn to something else to amuse his small mind,hes obviously not catching a lot of fish as he seems to have plenty of time to talk crap all day.
-
I heard this dickhead all day and I hope if there was parents out there with kids they blocked there ears,this guy seriously must have some sort of mental problem"wingnut" I can tell you for sure
when he gets caught and he will he wont think its funny,theres alot of game fisherman out there including me who would like to have a quiet chat with wingnut.

Bad luck guys,I hooked a big black in about 60 meteres of water short of the close fad that im not willing to even guess the weight of last year we had it on for 20 minutes and 24kg just didnt
stop it,I think its only a matter of time before someone knocks one of sydney over the 500 pound mark,you would have to be naive to think that they dont exist out there at the moment,if not bigger?
-
i dont doubt it one bit.
-
Get a big smooth rock ,put it in a big pot with nicely fresh fillets of Blackfish,cook for about an hour,take out the fish throw it away and eat the rock.Ha ha.
-
To wide for me ,your starting to smell heatons that far out,im hanging on a late bite in september,mind you this weather has forced the good water back out so who knows?
-
For all you people who don't understand electric reels and there purpose go out to the 300 metre mark and drop over 20 kilos of weight at wind it up,if your keen do it again,i think its a great way for recreational anglers
like myself getting a great feed of fish that your average fisherman or anybody for that fact cant afford to buy,i used to catch hapuka and blue nose {blue eye} in NZ in 100metres of water using stand up 15kg and the only reason we did was because in those days
nobody had heard of electric reels,if they are going to ban electric reels then ban alvey deck winches if its an argument about sport ,seriously whats the difference i just don't chose to stuff my back when i go out there.
Ive been boarded a few times at browns when they have been patrolling in a 8 ft inflatable but seriously its going to be hard to police,even if they stop the sale of them you can still by one from overseas online if need be.
-
how do they prove weather its plugged in ,you ca just say your using it manually?
-
what time do you leave , and how much for the day per person.
Thanks.
-
I will be out saturday to,looks like some good temperatures out there,I think I will go the Canyons.
-
i did the same thing woke up at 4am only to find it blowing 25 knots at home .
The biggest king I have ever come across, and off a wharf to boot.

Mate I grew up catching kings off the mangonui wharf in NZ,my biggest off there 27kg and lost plenty bigger,theres no better feeling
getting one landbased after pursuading them through moorings and hopefully holding them away from pilons,
I only ever used 15kilo so you just have to be lucky and it all needs to go right for you,
I used to find people using to heavy gear lost more fish cause when they are that big,the more drag you put on them the harder they go!
sometimes its just up to the fish what happens?
