Fishing Gossip - Courtesy of Tauranga Marine Charters
Another generally good week's fishing, although the currents that we've been getting have made things tougher some days. Luckily we've been able to avoid the worst of them, and when we have, the tarakihi have been good size and condition. Wayne had an overnighter Saturday/Sunday that was very successful, plenty of panny snapper on the Saturday night and no current and likewise with the tarakihi on Sunday. We had one on Sunday/Monday, the worst night fish we've had under a full moon. The keen ones got an assortment through the night, but still pretty ordinary. The day started similarly so we did a few puku drifts for two nice hapuku and some gemfish, and finished off with a good feed of tarakihi so a good end result.
