I love summer

9 February 2012

I have been making the most of the delayed NZ summer after all that rain at the start of January. Have been out at Whangamata, fishing in the Waitemata and brewing beer.


Crossing over to the Island at low tide Whangamata


We were out fishing in the middle of the ocean when Max caught a huge John Dory that fell off his rode just as he pulled it into the boat. With a strong current it was out of reach of the net in a few seconds on the surface of the water, Dad couldnt let such a big fish drift away so jumped in after it


We had a go on a stand up paddle board. I think I might stick with the kayak as it isnt really my thing


Another mint sunset across the Tamaki estuary


We have been catching lots of big fish this summer. This is a 1.6kg snapper tania caught


Kahawai are everywhere at the moment. The ones at whangamata were massive.
