fished nth side of the island yday..cold green water current wrong way.25 knot noreaster after lunch..mixed bag with heaps of bonito  a few small reds two reds around 3kg ..I hooked up on the most amount of sharks I have ever had the displeasure of finding..10 /20 mins on each one to see if they were cobes or anything to keep..then bust them off..whalers fro 3ft to 6ft..ive never had this problem anywhere before...hopefully some good water will push in soon..the fish were coming up cold as to touch surface temp was 20.4 at best..rick

Ouch Rick! At least you picked up a few reds! Yeah the sharks have been a problem of late especially live baiting! Small hammers, bronzies etc. can't wait to get out there! 

Cheers scratchie!!!
