We decided to give drift fishing ago on Saturday. So we went out about 9:30am, with ideal fishing time guessed at about 12:50pm.
Went fishing this morning at 8:00am to catch the low tide change at 8:30am. We caught 3 Snapper, 5 Kahawai and 2 Mackerel. We also caught a good 10 – 12ft Great White Shark. This was at a depth of about 20m and about 100m south of the Kapiti Boat Club. I don’t [...]
I know I know I’m combining 2 days together but I’m sure you will get over it. Anyway we did a lot of fishing last week and also on Saturday.

Caught a Snapper, Trevally, and Kahawai also tried out our home made down rigger

Caught a Snapper and something large (we thinking large Snapper) snapped our rig twice.

Went out fishing off Paraparaumu Beach again last night about 5:30pm. The Tide was pretty much low however there was a decent amount of chop on the water and the waves getting out were quite annoying. After filling the zodiac with water and bailing it out on the beach we decided to take our time [...]
There was little wind yesterday and the chop on the water didn’t look to bad so we decided to go out at Paraparaumu Beach. My Snapper Rig worked well yesterday but I did notice it started to tangle when it got into a current or it might have been just the line getting twisted. There [...]
