Hi Guys and Gals (there must be more than just me).
Was wondering if anyone had had any luck in the Waiau Pa/Clarks Beach/ Te Toro area in the last month or so?
Went out to Waiua Pa last Monday but the only thing biting was yellow tail.
It was great to have the rod out again though

Gidday Storm. I havent been out in ages .... kingfish supposedly turn up around Waiau Pa over the next couple of months, best to use those yellowtails as a livebait. A lot of guys get kahawai off the point at ClaRKS Beach at low tide. |
