Left Okahu Bay and stopped over the top on dense mid-water sign, maybe kahawai. Dropped and jiggled soft baits on top of and under them, nada. Moved over by the container wharf, baby bites, then chased off by the pilot boat, ship coming in. Tried over by the naval docks, babies released. Drift near Devonport wharf, 1 x 34cm snapper on a 4" Zman electric chicken curlytail. Headed round north head, tried out near rough rock where there were massive schools of bait and terns working, nibbles. Final few minutes near 12 buoy but the tidal flow had died so home James, 1 snapper. |
