Mornings Folks , as you look at the synoptic , we can see why we had those huge seas , both those big fronts slipped off way south and hence we saw the big seas...that little coastal low is being persistant BUT , I think that high ridging in will squash it , although it may bring much needed...

Good day Folks , well , we have a huge sea at the moment with that front having just passed and we going into a bright moon spring from tomorrow , with full spring on Friday , we have a high pressure ridging in with a cut off low forming on the west coast , which seems pretty weak as it...

Mornings Folks , will give an update shortly about the coming weekend , the past weekend was quiet with the odd blue fish coming out...

Mornings , yes i did , went down to my spot ...tide was spot on , sea was not up and no surge , colour was very grubby and the baro was still dropping unfortunately , ..my prediction for that front was a bit early , it only came through late Sunday and we are now seeing the result ...west is...

Well , its 15h30 and those fronts are closer , the east has been puffing along our coast line as that high moves off.... I still feel , tomorrow morning and Monday AM will be the windows of opportunity ...

Mornings Folks , we have some typical early winter systems approaching us and as usual the CT areas always takes the brunt of it , not really sure hiw that affects the fishing that side... As you look at the synoptic you can see a cut off low forming on the west coast , but as i get reports...

Well , will you look at that ...EXACTLY ten years to the date , as Im browsing through Sealine thread base , when I last posted on this thread about the weather and conditions.... and look at todays synoptic...almost spot ....pretty interesting indeed

Also of note , the last 4 years have been pretty strange conditions on our East coast , while Im sure fish has come out , and to a large degree I havent fished much BUT , the past three weekends Ive noticed what I would term "normal" conditions . especially as tides are concerned , and I...

Lets see what this weekend is going to deliver on our East coast , that stretches from Gonubie in the west to Kei mouth in the east , that is just on 50km of pristine coast line and fishing the conditions along here will certainly pay its dividends... Will start giving an update from this...

Well , this weekend tides were not really to my liking , I do like an early morning outgoing tide and over the years, have rarely hooked a kobbie in the middle of the day , probably in 20 odd years have only done it twice.... Saturday was a blowout for me at my spot and I watched as the...

Been busy revamping a Jiggy High speed with the "heavy" aluminium spool for further casting , lovely old legend of a reel ..going to put it on a 11footer 1980s KF T43 ROD ....going to be my retro kob on spoon outfit....

Update before I knock off for the day , ...that frontal system has now had "babies" and there is a cut off low in front of the main front , I believe CT is being lashed as we speak.... Its about timing this weekend....

Yes , good stuff... These conditions have been bothering me for awhile , but certainly will be throwing a bit more again ... I remember my dad telling me that back in the 70s , there was a three year period that the fishing did not feel "normal" , Im sure that is what Ive experienced up here...

Mornings , this is the position as of zero hundred hours today , so that cut of low has come n gone , some rain and a west that was short lived... That cold front has probably made landfall in CT by now and we will feel the brunt of it , I suspect later today.... I think . fishing this...

Just as a side note , these are the spoons I am throwing at the moment , for those interested... As you look at the pic , the two on the right are my own design S shape spoon and out of tin , weight is 1.5 ounces ... the other two are commercially available out of chromed metal , for testing...
