    Fantastic diving in Auckland on the weekend. Good Fantastic diving in Auckland on the weekend. Good visibility and lots of fish on offer. Large numbers of snapper and schools of kingfish prevalent where ever we found current. And only a short boat ride offshore. We are very lucky to have such a healthy fishery in the Hauraki Gulf with easy accessibility for people to catch a feed! #spearfishingnz #haurakigulf #wettie @danrogers_spearo @jdwaugh
    Perfect Spring day out on the water in the weekend Perfect Spring day out on the water in the weekend. Good conditions above and below the water. Lots of fish around. @danrogers_spearo picked up a nice Kingi out of a big school and there were Snapper galore. As well as healthy numbers of crayfish. We came across all three species we have in NZ in the same spot. Spiny Red Crayfish, Packhorse Crayfish, Spanish lobster (slipper lobster). #lobster #spearfishingnz #wettie

    Good to get time in the water last weekend. We hea Good to get time in the water last weekend. We headed out to Kawau and were greeted with great diving. Although water is still 14-15 degrees there were lots of bait fish, kingfish, snapper, along with John Dory and an unusual capture for us when diving the reef. A Spotted Stargazer! Visibility was good at around 6 metres. #wettie #spearfishingnz
