OK, here is the PLAN.
 
Thursday 17th - I'll be at the Whakatane Game Club & have some dinner around 6.15pm. Off to the Coastguard building around 7.15pm.  Make a start on the training at 7.30pm.  This off-water clinic is important if you want to learn knots etc so please get there before 7.30pm.  Please have your $80 cash ready for the PR bobbin & assist components, $40 if you don't need the PR bobbin.  Bring your tackle to this clinic.
 
We should finish around 9.30pm enough for a night cap then hit the bunks aboard Pursuit.
 
Depart wharf Friday 18th early for White/Volkners.  Whole day spent jigging & coaching techniques etc.  After a couple drifts I'm sure you will all be sorted out and you'll enjoy the rest of the day.
 
The coaches are myself, Jimijig and Ginga.  Jimi needs no introduction to you but Ginga is the dark horse who has logged a few offshore trips with me at the 3 Kings (with jimi) and White whilst in the company of the famous Yoichi Mogi - the man who re-invented jigging as we know it.  Ginga has just taken delivery of a new 7m charter boat and intends specialising in jigging and soft plastics and is based in Tauranga.  Collectively, we possess the experience and wisedom that will kick start you all into the dark arts of jigging.  So keep your minds open to different ideas and techniques, the day on the water will put you to the test.  If the Kingies play ball, then I'm sure you will all enjoy the experience.
 
I'll have a few Zest prizes to give away near the day's end so be sharp as you may be the lucky jigger.
 
N.B.  all Kingies will be released after the obligatory photos.

Rick asked if anyone would be keen to haul a lure while out there. I said keen beyond a doubt, but I think we need to stick to our plan. Need to make the most of our opportunity to learn from our men running the clinic.

I'm waiting for the big invite!
 
This sort of thing needs to work in with my busy program so I need lots of advanced warning.  Cheap "grab-a-seat" fares help in the timing Tongue

Yeah, stick to the plan.  We can troll back or even drop jigs for the Fin if they are still about on the return.

Uhunter (Nathan) has reminded me that the Whakatane Game Fishing Club has a great restaurant, bar, showers etc that are available to us.  But we must all sign in as a group.  Nathan and his father will be there at 6pm to facilitate this and transport some of us to the Coastguard building down the road.

To say I'm looking forward to this would be some what of an understatement. To rub shoulders with the likes of Jimi Ginga and Chris will be fantastic. I am sure with some gental persuasion we could knock together another trip out.
 
It may require some careful timing though..........

I will bring my vid camera and digital, i will be able to cut some to disks later on and distibute out, so probably no need for everybody to bring cameras and all get the same photos, this also helps to minimise time fish spend out of the water which is all good.

Bring these jigs -
e.g. if you bring 10 jigs, make up should as follows -
 
300g x 3
400g x 4
500g x 3
 
Tackle should preferably be PE8.  If you have a PE5 outfit then bring that along too. This type of jigging is NOT light line or IGFA stuff.Big%20smile
