East Cape - Little Barrier
Rember how to fish with these...
and you don't go fishing without these do ya now.....our somewhat depleted stock but hey.... if they get eaten that's not a bad thing... aight!!
Hook ups a plenty on baits and livies...
and the bin starts to fill up....
Deckie this trip was Brownie (Brown Dog) and we were both kept busy...
another one hits the net.....
and another goes to bed.....
a few of us dabbled with the SPs...this wee rig scored a plenty....
see....

at this rate we are gonna fill up quick.....
deepwater soft plastic fishing....
this puppy came out of 60m...check out the lead to get the bait down - unorthodox and I'm hearing ya... but it works...
The second bin gets started...
double, triple and even quadruple hook ups were common... goaat love winter fishing the deep

the single hook strayline rig buys a pannie
this was the best preformer so far as those other baits went - you know those rubber things you see from time to time...

our redesigned landing gear worked a treat - very happy with that now.
OVER and OUT!
