Bluenose
Bass
Matt and a 22kg Hapuka
The haul after 1 hour
The weather for Saturday was perfect, no wind no swell so at 4.30am, Matt, Murray and I head out from Tata to Baistows again. At the 100 metre mark we see small schools of bait fish being chased by fish, followed by a large splash, so we quickly put out a couple of lures and we are instantly rewarded with 3 albacore tuna. The first of the season, so with fresh bait we head to Baistows to start our first drift. one hour later we have 7 Hapuka, 2 bass and one bluenose on board. The bass both weigh 10kg each and the biggest puka weighs 22kg, with the boat full we head back home to have the boat cleaned and the fish filleted by 11 o'clock, not a bad days fishing.
