Kingfish. Tuna stocks are scary low down these ways. Two many international trawlers fucking our waters and our navy and airforce do nothing. Really fucks me off

No worries bro, the biggest one our crew has taken is 52kg, now that's a monster.Wow, now that's a kingy if i ever saw one
If anyone wants big fish, come down under and fish either the Three Kings, White Island, Ranfurly Banks and then of course the might blue fin on the West Coast. If your die hard go the west coast. You really have to get on it, because you fish 24/7 and those beasts are 150kg-500kg+, fights can last from 1hr to 12hrs and when your paying nzd$12k for six anglers, it ain't cheap lol.
You only normally get to keep one, tag and release the rest. Either way if you keep a 300kg fish, it is a bit no? Lol

Aye 12k between 6 anglers definitely covers cost when you are keeping 300 kg worth of blue fin, that shit aint cheap. 100# per angler for 2k each not bad for that experience

Yeah bro hard. Its not a bad deal at all. Pity I cant just sell the fish to Japan hahaha. You get 3-4 x the 12k for it

Hey just saw some minor mistakes on page 6 of this thread in regards to ur electrical...if your hanging lights with that cable...look into strain relief connectors, and to hang the cable without a worry of it falling or moving,but with the ability still to adjust the height...look into a "horse cock"....just thought id share my 2c coming from an electrical background...crazy looking grows man! wish i had the room!

Thanks man, I've been meaning to get some strain relief connectors for those cables. I've had more than one pull out of the box, but i'm really good at procrastinating and they still don't have them. One day.
