The coast from the harbour entrance out to the Old Woman fishes well over summer and is a beautiful place to fish. The patches of foul out off Ocean and Kauri Mountain Beaches fish well now of year. Likewise, the Hen and Chicken Islands offer lots of fishing choice, with snapper the major target, however also producing big kingies and decent numbers of good tarakihi and trevally. In deeper water 80m plus hapuku and tarakihi should still be on the menu till the end of February. (stuff.co.nz)

My ears pricked up on hearing of Emirates’ plans to run continuous flights between Dubai and Auckland. I have taken their services to Dubai via Australia some times and while I never had any complaints, the stopover in either Melbourne, Brisbane or Sydney was some a ache. Just when you’d settled in, it’d be time to hop off and get scanned, swabbed and barked at by Australian aviation security officials before sifting around in a dreary transit lounge. Then again, the stopover on the return journey did supply some respite after 14-odd hours in the air. \. (nzherald.co.nz)

The major saloon and sleeping quarters can comfortably accommodate 4 anglers on expanded overnight charters. The spacious cockpit and lounge regions let lots of room for 6 anglers on day trips. The groundbreaking split-level design forward of the big cockpit gives anglers an under-cover, comfy looking at lounge where they can relax and still be only seconds away from the rods when a fish strikes. The Double Strike was fitted with a head that surpasses any other, because if nature should call while out fishing, you may be able to still see the lures through a big window in the door, and another window on the starboard side offers a panoramic view of the ocean, while giving you enough privacy.

When hooked their bladders do not inflate so they float to the surface like groper. Instead they fight hard all the way to the surface. They’re usually taken by anglers on the same tackle used to land bass and groper. Best baits are small squid, barracouta fillets and jack mackerel. Use big tuna circle long line hooks when fishing in deep water as there’s no have to strike the hook. They are self-setting with fish nearly generally being caught in the jaw. (fishingmag.co.nz)
