Site looks great guys and not trying to point the bone, but ever since Peter Francis left the fishing reports for Wellington have almost disappeared (I'm not sure if this is the same for the rest of the country).
For me as a new comer to the scene the reports keep me geed up and let you know what's happening in your immediate area. Obviously it is a big ask to expect the reporting team to put fingers to the key boards all the time, but it gives you heart to know that the fish are out there, at what depths and baits to use etc.
The ultimate for me would be a fishing report from some guru on the Kapiti coast as this is more in my zone.
Any way just an observation, not trying to be negative and ABs by 10 this weekend.
Gidday Kerren,
Perhaps you could touch base with one of the following representatives, (Got the info off this site in the club section so not sure how up-to date) and see if someone from Kapiti way wouldn't mind posting the odd report.

Onya Smudge, I'm all for that!
I for one will start posting reports from Welly...til I move back to Auckland that is...next year me thinks, the wife and kids are coming round to the idea. I'll be up there in the next month or so, looking at boats and catching up with mates and family. It would be great to squeeze in a day out on the brine with some forum folk who know their shiet too.
Kerren,
Im a keen spearfisher, Im based in Wellington but notice a few other spearo's I know from other parts of the country showing up on this board from time to time.
How would you feel about setting up a spearo's corner. Normally Im reading fisho's reports to get a better idea of where to dive but understand it could work both ways with fisherman reading spearo's posts also.
Cheers Paul
This is a 50# kingi I took out at Kapiti at the end of Feb 2002
I am quite happy to post reports as I get them, however due to the nature of "some" fishos. I will be keeping them reasonably obtuse. Most will be freshwater though. I can only post what is reported to me though. Semm to spend more time doing angling administration than angling.
