Meanwhileโฆback at headquarters night blasts of 100kph+ winds with power outages, while thundering squalls have been stirring up the sea state inshore and offshore. Long distance land based casting has been a much easier affair with a howling wind over your shoulder. But murky water needs a little helping hand from bright, splashy, flashy, luminous active lures โ better to be seen and heard if youโre talking about lure fishing in turbid water. Luminous, chrome and highly coloured jigs and softbaits a great first choice, add in a Catch Tuning Blade to both for extra rattle and hum, a very good option and used with great success to enhance the noticeability of you lure.

Good varieties of fish are out around Little Barrier environs whether softbaiting in and around the big boulders, or out fishing Horn Rock and various smaller pins that lurk around the island. Kingfish, trevally, gurnard, snapper and the odd frost fish too for a bit of fish-bling! When weather allows itโs a great winter fishing destination. Keep an eye on the western side of the gulf, Kawau area for a surge in fishiness, some very good signs are lining up.
How about a grand slam style day or three โ browse the Tairua Boat Show and catch a southern bluefin tuna out off the eastern Coromandel coast there or thereabouts? Sounds like a plan to me!
