Well as the 2016 reports have all disappeared, I will follow the lead of others and begin a new thread.
Took my brother-in-law from the U.K. out today. Fished 7:30am until 12:30pm from Harbour mouth, Bluffs all the way down to Otter point and back. Mostly trolling with the tide each way. Immaculate day on the water – flat calm and bright sun in late morning with big flat low period swells coming from the west. Fishing was O.K. but the fish were small. Got a double header of a 4lb and 3lb fish in the first 20 minutes, one on anchovy and one on a glo spoon then not another hit for 4 hours until 10 minutes from the end when got another 3lb fish. Both the smaller ones were hatchery and the other guy was unclipped. Almost no birds out there other than three cormorants riding a log. About 4 other boats fishing the same areas as us and one anchored for hali.
