Managed a couple of trips out. By the signs, it looks like these are my last winter dives.

We get a lot of imitation Terakihi up north, the kind that get you all excited, then confused and ultimately disappointed. Then the blighters grow up to be imitation snapper and create the same reaction all over again. |
The sea conditions have been fantastic over the last few weeks so I have tried to make the best of it. I've posted just a few sample photos plus an Illustration to back it up,..or it did'nt happen right?.
Motiti Island can be a dark cold dive this time of year but it still holds good fish and you can always go home with a good feed. These tarakihi are a bit smaller than turks in other areas I hunt but are the best eating. They are very firm of flesh and are a real bonus when you can find them in the murky waters.
