On Thursday we did our usual 4 hour trip up to Bowentown in the Bay of Plenty for the Bowentown Sportsfishing clubs Nauti Girls competition. This year Deb and I drove up towing Gazebo and Liane came up Friday with the Kids, Trish unfortunately couldn't make it because of work commitments. Deb and I arrived Thursday evening to flat calm sea and harbour, no swell and no wind. the next morning we launched Gazebo and headed out to the entrance with the hope of going over to Mayor Island, but the line of white water over the bar and a freshening wind put paid to that, harbour fishing it was, again a case of "you should of been here yesterday" all we got were Stingrays and sharks and a couple of small Trevally.
The Nauti girls comp was much the same for us 4am start and a frustrating day of stingrays and sharks, but we were not alone. The day was good and the harbour flat and the girls enjoyed themselves - till next year.
