Waihau Bay trip 02.03.16

It has been a long time since my last blog, you thank facebook for that, I went up to Waihau Bay on a mates boat chasing marlin and managed to get my first one, I will post a video breakdown of the trip ( there is one mistake the pod of beaked whales are in fact false killer whales, very rare to find let alone film. The last 12 months have been hard, snapper the fish I love to hunt have been very hard to find and yellow fin tuna which have been missing from New Zealand waters for the last 6 years with only 1 or 2 caught per year have returned, not in the massive schools of old but a least they'er here with a couple caught in our waters.

Over  days we tagged and released 1 striped marlin and dropped 2 blue marlins as well as catching 1 small MahiMahi
