Got out for a fish yesterday afternoon over high tide with the wife and young boys, was great days fishing not for the catch but for the time spent with the family. Suspect sea temps still low in this area as the usual winter catch were bagged red cod and spinys.

Ok so what would be your guys pick of baits for targeting ele’s, and more importantly are they being caught casting to the horizon or in very close ie very short casts? Is there anything special that you guys do to target them or is it pretty much if they are there they will take a bait? Am trying to work out some options for targeting them here…[Read more]

Finally managing to get out for a fish and last night caught my first rig for the season about 6.5kgs. And then took my oldest boy (3 and a half years) out fishing today, he kept catching crabs on his line they would hold on till the surface and then let go, but its ok cos daddy caught some in his net!!!

HookLineSinker replied to the topic shock leaders in the forum Tackle Talk 9 years, 4 months ago
Depends on how much weight you have on and how much weight you can put into casting, iv in the past broken 40lb leaders with 4oz and big bait. Where a leader really helps is figthing big sharks in heavy surf and tryin to land them that last 5metres in the wash. I recommend using them but again many dont all depends on theamount of power put into…[Read more]

You may have heard mili, there is a spot between seaview beach and the Awatere river mouth, around midway that apparently used to produce grouper from the beach based on reports of the old locals out seddon way.
