awsome area up there for any fishing as I used to stay in tekao, so I know that area like the back of my hand and have fished literally every method you can think of there,but still find spirits bay and tapotupotu to be a fav for me,good luck to you cause fishing in chch is way slacker
Long time fisherman but new to yak fishing. Based in Rotorua so local for me is Tauranga to Whakatane. Only been out twice so a lot to learn. Very keen softbaiter. Planning to do the Tga De-Coro softbait tournament which was recently postponed until 5 - 6 Dec and rules specify yakkers to be in pairs. So if anyone thinks they might be interested or just like to get out for a fish one weekend please get in touch. Should point out that i fish from a Frenzy so understand if you're concerned. Long story short - it's been hanging in the garage for years as kids no longer use it - so I thought what if..... try it and maybe one day I'll upgrade to something that takes a little less effort and less windage. Don't paddle far as you can imagine.
Cheers EvanHi Evan, keep an eye on the bop thread. Yakn4snaps, fishkiller, and fatcat are all from rotorua and regulary fish up this way. You are welcome to join up with any of our informal outings. Primo weekend so there will be plenty of fishing going on. Im in a team in the decoro comp so if you are at a loose end you can fish with us. The frenzy should be ok for paddling a km or so.
Hi Bottlerocket keep an eye out for when guys are going out. Ive gotta work this week but there maybe some others free. The harbour can be tricky and most of us fish down papamoa way. Good luck.
