You need zero cloud cover of course so its not an easy thing to get right ..but when it is all lined up it is amazing...my best trip we got into anchorage at 11pm and by 4 am i had caught 23 kingies with 6 over 20 kgs..we had put close to 100 flying fish in the ice hold as well..It was as easy as picking up a flying fish that had flown onto deck and knocked its self out then putting it back with a hook in its nose and watching masses of kings race in and fight for it..1 bloke had never caught a legal kingi before and i left him on deck still catching them right thru till dawn...wouldnt like to think how many Jay caught that night but he was shot to pieces in the morning after a full day catching kingies they turned up again that night at anchor...never forget that trip------------- 2009 and 2010 BERKLEY SOFTBAIT COMP CHAMPS,Runner up 2013 ( solo),winner 2013/14 longest kingfish nz fishing competition |

Well... on the bright side the ITM show will ROCK on that puppy....
Always remember, "Behind every successful man is a woman who made it necessary"
I could be keen on a place on this trip Ian, let's catch up during the week and discuss. In fact, it's turning westerly again on MOnday, you might need to pop over for a fish, these things are always best discussed on a boat  .------------- http://www.clarkreid.co.nz" rel="nofollow - www.clarkreid.co.nz FFF Certified Casting Instructor / Umpqua Designer Tier

Trip will be to Ranfurly only, this is on the advice of many. I would think that this time of the year will produce some very well conditioned fish, if the weather plays it part the fishing will be magnifico........

until we have the full number it's like a fart in the wind...................
jigging only trip but if it happens we need bait.............tui moment
i am happy to do the food shopping if required, $1200 buys enough bread to soak up the excess beer
I am pretty sure we should get some change out of doing the shopping ourselves if that is the conclusion we as a group come to. it's up to those that sign up. since most of the group looks like they are BOP we may need to meet at someones place in the area (i've heard waihau bay is not a bad spot) to go over any details that maybe of concern. or i can put on my hitler hat and just tell ya what to do.............. |

I will ask some of the guys on here that have done this trip before a few questions and see if they have any ideas / help to offer |
Posted By: ChrisW
Date Posted: 30 Jan 2008 at 11:30pm
|
I know $1200 is a lot for food but Lance and all the other Whakatane skippers are just passing on the cost for the pre-catered food - which is excellent. Be aware that if you bring on your own food, you should also include more than enough for everbody INCLUDING the crew. Personally I prefer to go with the flow and take which ever is easiest. ------------- give it death! |

| Hi Guys - Pretty much a jigging virgin here but done plenty of fishing over the years. I could possibly be keen to join you on this trip if you dont mind a bloke from the Waikato (although I'm a bred and born Bay man). Just one question and that is for that price is any gear supplied? I have a Penn 114HLW loaded with 80lb braid so not sure if this would do the trick. Went to Ranfurly with Joe McClutchie in Feb 2007 and had an awesome time but fishing was basically for Puka/Bass only. You dont choose what you catch - he chooses what he wants you to catch. Would be keen to go again and try and get into the XOS Kings down that way. |

Punter Pete...............if you enjoy a laugh and a few beers then jump in quick!! I have no idea if you can hire the gear that we use, but will make some enquires for you. The alternative is have a TAS moment cause once you cross to the dark side you will not go back!!!!
