Looking for someone to help recover a very sentimental ring in the water at Raglan. A metal detector can be arranged. Contact me asap.

Nice fish, sounds like a good day out. Kudos for not taking the 50-50 shots, what kind of shark did you see and how clean was it out there?]]> Sat, 24 Dec 2011 15:59:51 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73724&PID=1050820&title=raglan-dive#1050820 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73724&PID=1050766&title=raglan-dive#1050766 Author: offsurfing

Sam had some equipment failure that cost him a kingiiee. But on tanks he got cray quota. On the way back boat hit a mako but were to slow to retreve it before it sank. Got a few snappers on the rods and a big dory. And picked up 4-5 Kahawai as well through birds diving. Great day. Also some seals to swim with. Mean day out.

Thanks kina ball of come alone way in the past couple of years. ]]> Sat, 24 Dec 2011 13:34:02 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73724&PID=1050766&title=raglan-dive#1050766 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73724&PID=1050660&title=raglan-dive#1050660 Author: Kinabal Lector

Nice one chap, bloody good conditions out there at the mo. Did ya get anything else while you were out there, or just the kingi?]]> Sat, 24 Dec 2011 06:51:23 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73724&PID=1050606&title=raglan-dive#1050606 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73724&PID=1050579&title=raglan-dive#1050579 Author: offsurfing

Headed out from Raglan with Sam

The result



Great day. Had a shot lined up on the fourth dive down but left it. Then about 30 minutes later was schooled by about 20 of which this wasn't the largest but I had a good angle and got him with a sweet shot. Just under the 12kg mark. My Personal Best.

Then later when drifting beside the boat along the reef I had a line tangle with my stringer but decided it wasn't worth the effort so was looking around and saw an absolute monster (I thought it must be a shark at that size) so dropped down and saw a yellow tail on a massive kingiiee and as I lined up what I had little doubt would have been high 30's kg beast If not far more (compared to what I had speared earlier it was enormous and fat) then had second thoughts with a tangle rubbing beside my arm and tugging on my suit and at 8-10m thoughts of being dragged down so past up what would have been at best an average shot with a poor angle. 10 minutes later I saw another big shadow and when I dropped down I got close thinking this fish will be even bigger. and it was. A shark as long as me rubbing up the flasher rig. I thought since it was my first shark I have encountered and due to its size I'd peek out but I watched it for a little before returning to the boat and calling it a day.

Big thanks to Sam for taking me out.
