No need for sand sinkers here?

Bloody hell, those waves coming over the top are wicked
Would be truly impressive to see when huge sets pound that area]]> Sun, 29 Jan 2017 13:40:48 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=1677265&title=castlepoint-lbg#1677265 <![CDATA[Castlepoint LBG ?? : i grew up in palmy used to fish...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=1677187&title=castlepoint-lbg#1677187 Author: taurangatroutmaster

i grew up in palmy used to fish castle point quite alot, havent for 15 odd years though. used to catch heaps of kahawai, the odd kingy on livies, got bitten off by heaps of sharks, mate got a pup hapuka and ledgers dropped straight off the side got crayfish quite often. the small gap you see nailed my mate big time, he hesitated for only a second then ran and just got wiped out by a the wave, luckily for him there was an old rusty steel pole in the rocks( its proberly rusted away by now) that he got washed into and stopped him, otherwise he would have ended up in the lagoon.  he only went around 3m from memory down the rock face but lost most the skin down the left hand side of his body, had to get him to masterton hospital real quick. be careful out there]]> Sat, 28 Jan 2017 15:00:38 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=1677187&title=castlepoint-lbg#1677187 <![CDATA[Castlepoint LBG ?? : Impressive, check the video FF...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=1675444&title=castlepoint-lbg#1675444 Author: LBGer

growing up in the area spent a lot of time fishing castlepoint  and the storys are true I do remember 20 odd years ago on a couple occasions seeing big game fish from the reef a marlin cruising along not far out and a large scool of tuna passing by I have seen some big sharks rays and as posted not that uncommon to get the bonus of a cray tangled up in the line.]]> Sun, 15 Jan 2017 21:03:20 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=1675229&title=castlepoint-lbg#1675229 <![CDATA[Castlepoint LBG ?? : Thanks for the response Pete and...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=207115&title=castlepoint-lbg#207115 Author: mr.trout

 Thanks for the response Pete and the rest of the guys. Just got back from an extended work trip( + fishing of course), hence no response for some time ! Definitely want to hit it when the weather gets a bit more reasonable. Will certainly be in touch soon Pete. I like the sound of those sharks and other you speak of.]]> Sun, 06 Aug 2006 13:13:43 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=207115&title=castlepoint-lbg#207115 <![CDATA[Castlepoint LBG ?? : Mars wrote:JK, can you see...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15099&PID=206669&title=castlepoint-lbg#206669 Author: shimma

It's the 1st gap that is 'jumpable',or a real quick scramble down a bit and back up, the 2nd you need springs on ya feet...
This is what happened to the guy  when he misjudged an incoming wave at it, and was in the middle of getting across, when the wave caught him, and just washed him into the lagoon, which because of the photo height, you can't see the churned up motion of the water, that it becomes after the huge volume of the waves, constantly break over on a rough day, and has  that lagoon working like a washing machine, creating all sorts of problems for anyone foolish to be caught in it...

its a safe place when there is no swell. check the Castlepoint marine forcast b4 you go, if its 1mtr or less from north or sth then its good.
its the same as driving on a road thats killed people. if you are sensible, prepared and careful there are no problems.
