 Has anyone fished from Motuihe Island?

 Been here about a year ago with D.O.C. and seen some nice spots to fish (see below).

 The North Shore Club is having a fish (Island of the bays) on 5th Feb 06. thought I might explore my possibilities on this beautiful island.

 If anyone is interested we welcome visitors and shared cost will lighten the  the ferry/taxi boat travelling charges. If interested let me know. I will find out costs, 5-6people would be good, depart pref. Devonport warf although reg. and wieght in is at Takapuna boat ramp. (I will sought out Logistics later)

The club has a (non compulsary) $5 pool which gets devided up between the 3 biggest catches for the day. Just as an added insentive!!!

Just know there's a 20LB swimming around there. 

Can't put the arial photo on so give me an e-mail if you want it!
