Fishing with Moo Noi


Coss

Recommended Posts

I had the inestimable pleasure of a fishing trip with Moo Noi yesterday.

 

We took off on a friends boat, twin outboards, an hour from downtown Auckland.

 

Fishing was hard, it's just turned winter here.

 

I did get 14 or so Mackeral, good for grilling :)

 

But no good fish.

 

A pleasant day was had, reminiscing, exchanging mongering stories, etc.

 

And then it was time to go and whammo! Moo Noi has hooked what looks to be a locomotive, rod bending, line stripping off the reel, this could be a massive fish!

 

10 minutes later the fish was still threatening to pull Moo Noi over the side of the boat.

 

I'd decided it must be a large stingray, the way it was working the boy.

 

Eventually the fish was boated, a 3kg Kahawai ( Link ) and this one had lived up to the Kahawai's well earned reputation as a great sporting fish.

 

Only 3 Kg but it fought like a bastard!

 

I haven't a photo but Moo Noi has, hopefully he'll find time to post it :)
