Nice effort lads, no doubt with this patch of good weather coming there'll be many more added...
70ml of 90deg C water pressurised through 13g of roasted finely ground tamped coffee for 25sec's to make a distinguishing sensory hit called a Double Shot

Lure/Bait: Lure– Hooker Small Rudy – Fruit Salad

Vessel: Plaything 2
Skipper: Ron Keyzer (Farmer Browne) & Johanna Keyzer (P-Thing1) – joint effort as we were both playing fish & driving the boat – double hook up
General Location: outside the marine reserve at Mayor Island
Comments:  20 minutes to get to the boat – tagged & released – one of the two fish hooked up on a double strike (the only reason I was allowed to play it as the cabin girl could not drive two rods at the same time) – bit of fun with just two hands on boats, but we got lucky and the fish co-operated well

Comments:  50 minutes to get to the boat – tagged & released – would have been quicker if the other half had not mucked around so much on his fish - one of the two fish hooked up on a double strike – bit of fun with just two hands on boats, but we got lucky and the fish co-operated well.  Should be some interesting video of this shambles after I have done some editing
