Yeah if that winds plays ball a bit better than lately. It'd be nice to overnight out at Barrier on Saturday night, pull plastic early Sunday, drop the braided line down deep, troll back. Sunday is looking like the best possibility for trolling at the moment.
 
If too windy - land based stuff like riding the dirt bike, BBQ'd Cray & Marlin & Scallops...watching that weather..

I took one look at the long range forecast and my plans changed from going out wide in the elusive search for the first ever winter marlin, to lighting the fire and spending the weekend in front of it on a bearskin rug with Scarlett Johansen.

Nobody has ever come up with a great idea after a second bottle of water.

Wetspot will have the outriggers set, canon Downrigger setup, all gear on board and laying lures to see how they are performing behind the new rig, Pratice Practice, more practice and a snapper fish in between.  So if you see some weirdo out the back of the Ahahas trolling plastics,  THAT WILL BE ME LOL

Bender Thumbs%20Up,  I was talking to Phantom about Anchorite while being towed in by the Coastguard Embarrassed yesterday and thats a plan and a 1/2 subject to suitable conditions.  Are you suggesting that they have been known to show up there at this time of the year ? because that would be a nice run straight out ?

Going to be in a wind bludger racing to Bay of Islands, then slow timing it back diving and fishing on the way.  Hopefully the weather plays ball.  Dan
