There are so many fish underwater, you don't even have to aim :) You can just shoot in the thick of it - you're sure to hit some fish!

Its actually not that easy ....Yes If you just fire randomly into a school you can hit something.... but its quite easy to get overwhelmed by there share numbers and you just miss every time.
You have to focus on a single fish.. ( like the biggest one) and track it with gun. Leons gun is an 85cm without a reel so his shooting range is only about 3m (shaft , shooting line and barrel length). So a constant moving target like a Trev can be trickier than you think, especially if its not broadside with you.

Hey "Gurnard" had a look at a couple F/B pages and they seem to run people down for taking and not releasing etc

I still regularly post up a report after I get out, which isn’t as much as I would like to these days. That needs to change.

I’ll admit this place is a shell of its former self. Primarily with the ease of social media sites now I bet.

But the nostalgia and memories this forum gives me keeps me hanging on and coming back, even if there isn’t much action these days. It taught me a lot and I learned a lot reading this forum in my late teens. Now into my mid 30s…]]> Sun, 30 Oct 2022 17:54:53 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=137107&PID=1829738&title=fishing#1829738 <![CDATA[fishing : No reports from me for a while,...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=137107&PID=1829661&title=fishing#1829661 Author: Kevin.S

No reports from me for a while, but the last time I got out fishing was the week after Christmas.  Hoping to be able to get the boat in for a service next month and then maybe actually get it on the water.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2022 09:56:13 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=137107&PID=1829661&title=fishing#1829661 <![CDATA[fishing : https://youtu.be/SZtppq5HIS4Headed...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=137107&PID=1829643&title=fishing#1829643 Author: Schampy

Why bother, I put up a post of my recent trip to Vanuatu which I thought may generate some interest and received two comments, one from Smudge and another from Skoti, thanks guys.  I don't think I'll bother next time.

Fished Tauranga harbour the last two Saturday nights for some fat healthy snapper.
Struggled to catch off Papamoa a few weeks ago.
Got a nice bin full up Coromandel about a month ago.

Spent some time on boat maintenance this weekend. Of course we had to test it. Some nice scallops and a trev yesterday - well we had to check the new radio, FF and battery were working.

Out off the coast today. No swell but messy. Great catch of snapper and some more scallops
