kingiemaster Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Howdy I'm back in the canoe as the boat is out of action yet again. Dropped in at the Spit. Had plenty of squid in the tank by 630 so started fishing by doing a few laps around the moorings at the Spit. Got this fish just west of the bridge off/under the UFO house in 60 feet of water with down rigger set at 30 feet. This fish went like a freight train on its first run taking 100 metres of line heading towards the bridge against the tide and kept going when I pushed the drag past strike. So I calmly called it for metre fish but then it settled down and came to me rather quietly. Went 72 so well short of a metre. Continued onto the Bluff and then back to the Spit but couldn't find any more fish. My mate lost a couple of fish at the Spit moorings from his boat (using some of my squid) so the fish were around just not in any numbers.
