Hi Shad Blue water right in and tuna at around 60m. Mixed bag with some around 7kg and others near coke bottle size. Bashed against headwind most of the 30km+ trip and both of us were completely buggered when we landed. However that is a side issue and not worth complaining about.
Brent, our forth donkey hunter team member has missed out as he is packing to go to Fjordland to start on his circum paddle of the South Island. Has finished the North Island last year, which obviously wetted his appetite. What will be next? Steward Island or the Chathams???? Anyway gave him our best wishes. He should troll a lure up the West Coast for a bit of Blue Fin fun.
Looks like Saturday or Sunday could be on for another go. Give me a ring if you can escape from the salt mines.
Cheers
Rainbow
