A quiz thread titled "Where is this?" has created considerable interest
in the "Freshwater Fission" forum - basic rules which are by no means set in concrete are as  follows :-
 
A pic is posted of some location or other for members to try to recognise
where it is. It should be SW fishing related but could be a landbased
fishing spot, a popular diving location or a fishing clubhouse etc.
 
Pic should have some identifyable feature such as rock, reef formation or
headland etc.
 
Unless otherwise stated should be of somewhere in NZ 
 
The first person to correctly identify the location or is deemed to be near
enough gets to post the next pic. If this individual does not wish to post
a pic they can nominate someone to do so or throw it open to anyone.
 
Regular clues to be given to help identication.
 
One only for the want of a better word will moderate the posts on this
thread only to give a ruling as to the rules being followed to ensure it
runs smoothly & as originator of the thread will self appoint myself for
the time being.
 
Will kick the thread off with something relatively simple & let's see how
it goes from there. The freshwater quiz is probably a much simpler concept
as mostly identifying a river, stream, lake or creek therefore rules for the
SW equivalent may require amending at some stage but is intended to be
a fun thing rather than taken seriously.
 
OK here goes .... where is this?
 
 
Same place
Once again
 
 
When you cry, feel pain or sadness, no one notices your sorrow .... BUT
fart just ONE time !!!!!!!!!!!

Far North, around the Henderson Bay area ?

Congrats FA indeed it is at the nthern end of the ocean side &
a great place to call in to have lunch if wind is friendly also for
some reason the water is usually very clear there as can be
seen in the pic.
 
OK over to you to post one now .... I may add one or two of
the general area of the spot at Tiri just for interests sake but
your turn to post the pic to get us all guessing.
 
Well done
