FISHING !



At the weekend the Kayak Fishing Club took to the waters around Mission Bay.
Greg joined them and bobbed around for several hours, catching fish.
He narrowly missed winning the weight raffle and we had fresh snapper for dinner with a chilled bottle of Chablis.



Snapper (or tamure to the Maoris) are one of the most popular dishes here.
They were overfished in the 1980s, but have made a slow recovery, it's still an achievement to catch one!
