Gave up thinking it was a waste of time - I'm back in papamoa now and wishing we had stuck at it! How far out was the good water from Matai? I wasn't game to take our 15ft any further out! Whats the word on dragging lures in green water for marlin? |

cheers for that Sam hope you learnt a few things, yes one bait about 8 seconds lol and what about that shark which bit its own tail and hung on??? got it all on video as well especially holding onto the free swimming shark, what a classic. Enjoy your trip away mate and hopefully see you home for nationals and the 1 base again. |
