Opito Bay would rate as my favourite place in the world. I got to escape back there for some quality time on the water with the kids and good mate Dion over the last week

There are plenty of nice fish at the moment in close to Tairua. Carl and the family have been getting out and having a ball.

A once in a lifetime trip that will be etched into the memory banks forever! Big bass to 67kg, hapuka to 42kg, kingfish to 40kg, but most importantly a trip to the mecca of NZ fishing with best mates and family...
