I took a 1.5 hour road trip last Friday to fish out from Tairua/Pauanui. I really struggled all day to catch fish but atleast the weather was good for a hoon on the jetski.

Good honest video there Thumbs Up

We all have days when the fish aren't biting. Local knowledge is important. New areas are fun to fish, but can be a challenge.

Nice video, aldie pins can be dead one day and 50+ fish the next. Noticed you have the GME black box VHF, would you recommend it?

Marknado4000 - Yeah I would recommend it, it is perfect for use on a jetski as you can mount the unit where ever you like inside the hull and just have the handset in the glovebox, no better unit to have when space is at a premium.
