A quick trip yesterday morning off Titirangi
Straight to the banks in 7m, got 1 for the bin on the first drop, then nothing but throw backs for the next 1/2hr or so
Also, not much current at that tide stage, only needing 1oz sinker or less to get to the bottom
Patches of sign coming thru but not that much, didn't really see any snapper sign come thru
I went into the main channel on a new spot that I just found that looked really good on the sounder as well as on the surface. Plenty of snapper sign coming thru plus big patches of other stuff from mid water to just below the surface
Got some more for the bin plus throwbacks within 30mins straylining squid & frozen macks with 1/4oz sinkers.... just keeping the baits a little off the bottom.
Then it pretty much ended there about 3/4hr before low tide as the current slowed right down..... just bait strippers happening
Thru out the sesh, the nor wester would come thru & chop up the surface then drop off leaving the water almost glass calm, actually, making it ideal conditions
Funny thing tho, compared to just 1 week ago in the same place, seemed like every man & his dog, be it boats or kayaks, there were heaps of them everywhere, yesterday, just me & 2 other boats spread out miles apart.... the difference a week makes aye
On & off the water in just over 2hrs.... keepers 33-36cm
