Efrain and Ben Villalobos. Junior Artists in Residence.

Look at these. Efrain's and Ben's first big fish, caught off the Tangimoana Beach, surfcasting with John and Allison. We caught 7 fish averaging 60 cm long, 2 kilos each in 45 minutes using fresh pilchard bait.

Alex and Elie WWOOFers from France

A fine first fish for Elie. I took Alex and Elie out to our favourite fishing spot and much to the excitement of Elie and Alex, Elie hooked up and reeled in a large Kahawai.
We took it home and after the photograph I showed them how to remove the fillets and smoke the backbone. The fish was so nice. We enjoyed 2 full meals for the 4 of us from just that one fish!
