I’ve always found your beach fishing journal to be epic Treblig. I’ve always wanted to catch quality salmon off the beaches as you do,but opportunities seem to be somewhat limited in the South Island area.
That being said, a Saturday night beach date with the girlfriend quickly turned into me running back to my truck hoping I had a fishing rod, as we watched salmon jump meters off a local beach.
In a few hours as I watched multiple species of salmon dance, I was rewarded with a pair of fairly dark & mature springs that aggressively chased down spoons and a pair of bright shiny coho-all released to continue there journey wherever they may end up. One of the coolest and most unexpected fishing experiences I’ve ever had.
Ha Ha, I hope your GF was OK with you turning her beach date into a fishing trip! ;>)
