  • Join me on an exciting fishing adventure as I head to the stunning Motu river mouth in search of big kahawai! Watch as I cast lures into the crystal-clear waters, battling these fat Kahis.
    I manage to land some solid ones, the adventure doesn't end there. Follow along as I take these fresh catches to a serene spot next to the river, where I fillet the fish and transform them into mouthwatering sashimi.
    Prepare to be amazed by the beauty of nature and the joy of catching, preparing, and enjoying fresh seafood straight from the ocean to the plate. Don't miss out on this unforgettable fishing and culinary experience!

    Nearly 50 years ago I fished there with my extended family, an older fiserman showed us all up, he was catching fish literally at his feet near where you had your bag at the start, up the river, I think I only caught two.

      Sad to say but you are correct, even though you took your catch away from the river mouth and a couple of KMs down the Rd to the bridge...it's still the same river. Fortunately for you bro I see you are passionate about the whenua and moana demonstrated by picking up somebody else's trash and returning your first catch (which we refer to in maraenui as your "licence") so I believe this to be not an act of ignorance but simply 1 of not knowing.
      I think the nephews spun a yarn and gave you a shit spinner and not the homemade slayers we usually use 😂. Enjoyed the video, hope you enjoyed your kai.

    You do know even with sashimi fish you have to still freeze it first. I checked and asked Japanese chefs. They use special freezers that can go -60C which take a hour or two then its slowly thawed. Check for yourself I don't want to be a buzz kill but just concerned about you because I love on what you do.
