Another successful day's fishing!

We had a flat battery this morning so Chris had to go and find a friendly camper with jump leads. After getting going we went to Pauanui , Chris bought some sea fishing tackle and we went for a fish off the beach and then the pier.

Killing dinner

He had just bought a spinner and some hooks, thinking of giving it a little go, but after chatting to some other locals they kindly left us with the rest of their pilchards for us to use as bait.

Fish number 2

Chris setup off the wharf and we had a good afternoons fishing, including catching 3 kahawai, but unfortunately it should’ve been more but some got away,

Chris and another fish!

and I was even there to witness it this time. It was all very eventful. As the tide came in about 4 stingrays came swimming in under the wharf, they were massive and very elegant in the water and we heard that just 2 weeks ago they saw some killer whales in the harbour and I am gutted we weren’t there to see them! But the fish was tasty nonetheless!

Another successful day's fishing!
