Nelson’s strongest man Richmond personal trainer, Tom Armstrong, lived up to his name by winning the Vortex Spas Top of the South Strongman competition held over two bicepbulging days at the Nelson A & P Show at Richmond Park. But according to Tom, he wasn’t the strongest man in the competition because many of the eight events also required, speed, endurance, an iron-fingered grip as well as brute power. After two days of lifting logs, kegs, stones, spas and dumbbells, flipping 200 kilograms tyres and

There were guys out there who could squat 260 kilograms - they were more powerful than me but you also needed all-round strength and endurance and a good, strong grip.” Now that he is officially the strongest man in the Top of the South, Tom says he may consider entering other strongman competitions. “It was really cool so I might have another go at one although I’m pretty sore now.” Photo: Chris Symes/Shuttersport.
Government funding for dam likely Nelson MP Nick Smith says “there is a good prospect” that the government will contribute to funding for the proposed Waimea Community Dam, making the $74.6million project affordable for water-users and ratepayers. The Tasman District Council will be seeking government funding for the dam when it meets with Crown Irrigation Company on Wednesday. The company was set
up in 2011 to help establish water schemes throughout the country and Nick says the Waimea Dam won’t be viable without its help. “I don’t think the Waimea Dam is viable without a government contribution,” Nick says. “The government has specifically set up the fund with the intention of supporting water infrastructure and that’s why I think there is a good prospect that the TDC will

secure the funding. But they will need to put in every effort into working with me to secure government funding for the project. They will need to have all their ducks in a row on this one.” Nick says Crown Irrigation considers each project and fund-
ing proposal individually and he would not say if funding would be in the form of a grant or a low interest loan. However, he warned that the project would still be financially painful for Tasman district ratepayers and water-users, even with government funding. “There is a good prospect of getting a contribution but it’s also important to emphasise that it is
going to be difficult to make this project happen. And it cannot be entirely funded by the taxpayer it will be financially painful.” Nick says he is a long-time advocate for the proposed dam because of the benefits it would bring to the region and he is encouraged “that the Crown Irrigation Company and the council are beginning discussions this week”.

“I left school just before my 16th birthday and worked in a rural garage fixing school buses, vehicles and farm machinery. It was a great education for the rest of my life.”
“I worked in the Nelson Breweries office when I was 15 years old, I learnt to be punctual, honest and gained experience in working with other people.”

Public save drowning baby
A baby boy, blue and limp after falling into the family swimming pool, was resuscitated by members of the public after his mother ran onto Tahunanui Drive screaming for help. Anita McGregor, of Richmond, was driving to Nelson with her sister and a friend at around 11.45 on Sunday morning, when she saw a woman come running onto the road with a limp and lifeless baby in her arms. “I saw the young girl come run-
ning out with bubs in her arms screaming for help, so we just slammed on our brakes,” says Anita, who had completed a first aid course earlier this year. “He was pretty blue. He felt like a dummy really, he was just flopped over my arm. There was nothing, no life there.” Anita took the baby – who is 11 months old – off the mother and went inside where, with the help of two other women, she performed CPR and helped the baby

breathe again. “It must have taken at least a minute, but it seemed so long. Finally he started crying and breathing,” she says. Anita says the parents of the boy were distraught as they worked on their son. “She was just screaming really, I cuddled her to say ‘it’s ok, he’s breathing’.” A St John ambulance arrived and took the baby
boy to Nelson Hospital. A spokesperson from the hospital said on Monday that the baby was in a stable condition. Another one of the ladies who helped perform CPR told Anita that she had just finished a first aid course last week. Police attended the scene and spokesperson Barbara Dunn says the boy was found face-down in the pool by a family member. Nelson City Council says a recent audit of the property’s swimming pool found several items that needed addressing.

“The owner was made aware of what was needed and corresponded promptly with both the council and his property manager to have the items addressed,” says the council’s communications manager Paul Shattock. He says the incident underlines the importance of having swimming pools fenced properly. “Even where barriers are provided, they must remain and continue to be fully compliant to ensure safety of occupants, future occupants and visitors to houses with pools,” he says.

Birthday boys and girl, from left, Wendell Field, Vanessa Taylor and Craig Woodbury outside their Queen St shops last Thursday. Photo: Simon Bloomberg. Vanessa says she didn’t know how old Wendell and Craig were but guessed that they were all about the same age and she was right. Wendell turned 46 last Thursday while Craig and Vanessa turned 44. Wendell also did pretty well on his birthday with his wife buying him a coffee and lunch from the Wooden Spoon. All Craig received was a cake topped with sweets from his staff and joked that he was still waiting for Wendell to “reciprocate with some flowers”.

Wendell says he has known Craig for over 20 years after working as a florist apprentice in the same shop, Broughs, as Craig’s mother. They continued their friendship when they both worked in Wellington and then “caught up again” when they returned to Nelson and opened their shops, one door apart, on Queen St. “It’s a bit of a giggle having three birthdays all next door to each other,” Craig says. “Perhaps we should have a big street party next year.”

It was party time at 251 Queen St last Thursday with three neighbouring retailers at 251, 251A and 251B all having their birthdays on the same day and two of them being born in the same year. Wendell Field of Fields Designer Florist at 251A Queen Street and Craig Woodbury of the Wooden Spoon Cafe at 251 are life-long friends and already knew that they shared the same birthday. But last Thursday, they found out that Vanessa Taylor, who is sales manager at Olive Estates’ information centre which opened at 251B in June, also shares their birthday and was born in the same year as Craig. “My boss, Kristin (Nimmo), went next door to see Wendell to get some flowers for my birthday,” Vanessa explains. “When she told him what they were for, Wendell said ‘it’s my birthday today too’. “Then he told her about Craig as well so that’s how we found out. But I think I had the best birthday because Wendell brought me the flowers and Craig brought over a coffee.”

Teachers and pupils at the Maori emersion school in Richmond are getting sick and tired of vandals showing a lack of respect for the school’s grounds and property. Vandals first hit Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Tuia te Matangi during the last school holidays when they damaged a large water tank, resulting a big repair bill and causing flooding nearby properties. The school has subsequently been subjected to a series of minor attacks by vandals, including someone trashing the children’s vegetable gardens, and principal Merita Waitoa-Paki says they have had enough. “We are very disappointed that these people are not showing any respect for the school. These gardens were established by the tamariki (children) as part of their curriculum on kaitiaki (sustainability) and they put a lot of work into them. We use the vegetables for home economics and also share them with the community. We have whanau here who come and pick vegetables for things like the church markets and these vandals just pulled them out and jumped all over them.” Pupil, George de Thierry, says
Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Tuia te Matangi students, from left, Whitireia Paki, Maraea Te Ariki, David Aleuhata and Geroge de Thierry, with teacher Oriwa Jennings and caretaker Eddie Wilson, beside one of the gardens where vandals pulled out plants. Photo: Simon Bloomberg. the students “are not very happy about the vandalism” and would like the vandals to “be more respectful of the school”. Merita says she has contacted the police about the vandalism and they have been sending their community patrol
into the school grounds. The school is also patrolled by security firm Armourguard and watched over by “very good neighbours” and she was confident the vandals “will be caught” if they keep coming back.

Fire fighters prepare for busy summer It could be a busy summer for rural fire fighters after they spent Monday battling a suspicious fire on Rabbit Island and a small fire sparked by a burning logging machinery in a forest in Supplejack Valley near Upper Moutere. The two fires started within an hour of each with the Upper Moutere Volunteer Fire Brigade responding to the fire in Supplejack Valley at about 1.30pm and then fire fighters from Brightwater, Appleby, Tasman, Richmond and Motueka heading to Rabbit island at 2.30pm. Forestry crews and two helicopters with
monsoon buckets also helped to fight the blaze at Rabbit Island which burned through one hectare of scrub in a pine forest before being brought under control at about 4pm. Waimea Rural Fire Authority principal fire officer, Ian Reade says they are still investigating the cause of the fire at Rabbit Island although “it is obviously suspicious”. Ian says it started at the eastern end of the island “near the beach front” and spread through scrub underneath the pine trees which appear to have escaped serious damage.
NEWS in brief
Simon Bloomberg
Senior reporter Reporter
simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz “It looks like most of them will survive. The trees had been pruned which helped and the fire didn’t extend up into the canopy.” Ian says a forestry crew “did the night shift” at Rabbit Island to make sure the fire didn’t flare up. Three staff from Nelmac remained on site on Tuesday to extinguish any hot spots. Ian says this week’s fires could be the start
of a busy season for rural fire fighters with the Waimea Plains and coastal areas drying out earlier than usual following three months of low rainfall and strong winds. “The strong southerly winds are really cranking the fire danger up,” he says. “We are getting to the stage where the grass is drying off very quickly and anyone who is mowing, grinding or welding in rural areas needs to take precautions.” Ian says they are still issuing fire permits but that would be reviewed if the dry weather continued. No permits will be issued for between Christmas and New Year.

The $5.1 million brings the total of donations to $56.2 million for the region over the last 26 years. STREET AMBASSADOR: The Tasman Street Ambassador service, which assigns experienced youth workers into the Richmond and Motueka communities on Friday and Saturday evenings, is starting this Friday. The ambassador’s primary role is to encourage young people to behave responsibly and also provide information to the public on regional events, health and well-being. It is managed by the YMCA Nelson and the Help for Young People at Events and in their Gathering Spaces. ROTARY HELPS CYCLE TRAIL: Rotary Club members from across the Nelson-Tasman region celebrated their contribution to the Tasman Great Taste Trail at a function on the trail on Sunday. About 100 Rotarians from the region’s seven clubs had provided volunteer labour to help build coastal sections of the popular cycle trail. Their contribution was recognised on a plaque unveiled by Nelson MP Nick Smith.

People from all around New Zealand and Australia have helped the Tadmor community raise $35,000 to save its church just in time for the historic building’s centenary to be held on December 7. The Anglican Diocesan Trust received an offer for the church from a private buyer but the Tadmor community wanted to keep the church and its adjacent cemetery open to the public and started raising funds to buy it back. The Anglican Diocesan Trust had put a price tag of $35,000 on the church and last month the Tadmor Church Society reached that target. “We were always optimistic from the start that we would raise the funds because we received so much support,” society treasurer, Brent Hodgkinson says. “We had donations from within the community, and not just from people connected with the church, and also from around New Zealand and even Australia.” Brent says they received donations from one woman who said “my grandmother is bur-

ied there” while another donor said her grandmother donated the stained glass window that remains in the church today. The window was donated in memory of her husband, Doctor Hudson, who died in a motor vehicle accident near the now-named Doctor’s Creek near Spooners Saddle. “As soon as the word got out we had calls from everywhere. We had a donation from a Nelson couple who got married in the church and we even had one from a woman living in Australia after she saw the story about the church in the Waimea Weekly - it’s been very humbling.” Brent says the response was so overwhelming they raised enough money to repile and paint the church and still have some left over for a maintenance fund. He hopes the church will become a focal point for the community after it was deconsecrated in a service by Bishop Richard Ellena
on November 16 so that it can be used by all denominations and for public events. Tadmor Church Society chairman, Bruce Moffitt, whose grandfather donated the land for the church in 1914, says he is delighted that the church is remaining in the community. “The people donated all of the materials and everything to build the church, so it belongs to the community. A lot of people are still being buried in the cemetery and we want to keep it operating.” And now the society is planning to have a service to celebrate saving their church and commemorating its centenary. “It was consecrated on 28 November, 1913 so we are having a special service on December 7,” Brent says. “We have sent out special invitations to all the people who made donations.” The service, led by Tapawera vicar, Natasha Glenderran, is scheduled to start at the Tadmor Church on Tadmor Valley Road at 11am on Sunday, December. It will be followed by a picnic lunch and a social gathering. All welcome.

Chefs are known for being ultra competitive, and for having a wicked temper, but two of Nelson’s top cooks reckon smacking each other in the face won’t be that easy. “We get on really well,” says Garry Ford. “But I’m sure that as soon as he whacks me I’ll get angry.” Garry, the owner of restaurants Ford’s and Panama, will face Hopgood’s owner Kevin Hopgood at the Fight 4 Victory charity boxing event next April.

Students put to work Simon Bloomberg

Waimea College year 10 students have been getting a glimpse of life after school, spending a day in workplaces around the district as part of the school’s Workwatch programme. Workwatch is aimed at providing one day’s work experience for the students and was held over the last two Wednesdays. Careers advisor, Lyn Guilliard, says the programme “has been running for a number of years” and always proves popular with over half of the 340 year 10 students enrolling this year. “For many of the students, it’s their first step into the workforce,” Lyn says. “It enables them to get into a workplace to see what it’s like and start thinking about the future.” Lyn says the programme is also useful because it “creates a conversation with parents about their children’s career path”. The students arrange their own workplace visit and later discuss the visit in their social studies class. “We also encourage them to write a report on the visit and

The parade starts at midday on Queen St. Photo: Simon Bloomberg.

It’s a good programme and we get really good feedback from the businesses, students and parents - we are also very lucky to have good support from the community.” Year 10 student, Elizabeth Osborn, spent last Wednesday working in the office at Pics Peanut Butter in Stoke. She says it was a good opportunity to see how the front office of a busy company was run and she enjoyed the experience. “I’m not sure what I’ll do when I leave school yet but this gives me a chance to see what it’s
like working in an office. It’s really interesting being out in the workplace - it’s so different from school.” Pic’s receptionist, Monica Pausina says they supported the programme because “it’s nice to think you are helping the next generation get some skills”. She says Elizabeth’s duties included answering the phone and helping customers and “holding the fort” while she took the guided tour in the afternoon. “She’ll be on her own for an hour but that won’t be a problem because all our customers are so nice.”

Family donates water pump to Henley kindy When twins Harry and Alice Mitchener left Henley Kindergarten three years ago, their family were looking for the perfect way to say thanks. They came up with the idea to present the kindy with a water hand pump as a leaving gift for future children to use. Peter and Jackie’s eldest child, Tom, had also attended the kindergarten and they are all delighted to see it now installed as part of a new water play area. “We wanted to say thank you to all the people at Henley Kindergarten who made our children’s time there so special. We searched specifically for a water hand pump so future children could enjoy wa-
ter play and learn about eco-friendly ways with water,” says Peter. Henley Kindergarten held an official water-play area opening ceremony last week, complete with cutting of the red ribbon. The space took one year to design and construct and includes the hand pump, water tub and a flowing river. The pump was built with help from landscape artist Tom Carr, landscape architect Lynn Cadenhead, handyman Kim Harris and Mike Goodyear of Independent Kerb and Concrete. The water feature was funded by Henley Kindergarten’s Family Liaison and Friends group.

Police report with Area Commander
Steve Greally
We’re coming into the time of year when people involved in the cannabis cultivation business are getting their plots established. People growing drugs in your area, or in areas you use recreationally, could be a risk to your property. Every year during the cannabis season we get increased reports of crime, such as theft of electric fence units, theft of fuel and other items from farm sheds. The Police operation is already under way gathering information about where people are establishing their plots. Information from the public is essential to this work and over the coming months we will be following up on those leads. If you see something that doesn’t look quite right - such as people heading into the bush with gardening implements or containers of water - you’re probably right in thinking they are tending cannabis plants. My advice is to get any details you can about the person, including a physical description and details of the vehicle they are driving. You can call your local Police Station with the information, or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Your information could make a difference.

Dodgy dentist: Re your front page article on the dentist Nick Smith. In 2010 I had the misfortune to have him totally botch a number of my teeth. I had to threaten legal action against him to even get a refund for the dreadful work he’d done. It cost me another $15k, six months of treatment with specialist Todd Gracia (often under a microscope), to try and save my teeth. He did a fantastic job. I got the princely sum of $795 back from ACC as it could only be proven damage was done to one tooth. A number of the great local dentists tried to get the Dental Council to strike Smith off because of my case and many others similar. Good job he’s finally gone. The guy was reckless, greedy and incompetent. Ricky, Nelson. He has stuffed up mine and my family’s teeth! My dad ended up going to another dentist (not in Nelson) due to severe pain in a molar. They pulled out green, rotting packing from his tooth!! Between us all we have spent thousands! Jasmine Lucas. Another dentist helps local mum after losing money: What a kind Dentist. Heather Waters. An amazing dentist to a really deserving mum! Felicity Watson.
Oh, that is awesome, I’m happy for you Stacey, and I think that dirty dodgy dentist should have all his assets taken to pay back the people he ripped off. Dez Tinee. What a lovely thing to do. Teressa Obrien

Car parking in and around the Richmond Mall will be easier this Christmas after the mall leases space at the Richmond A&P showgrounds for staff of mall businesses to park their cars: Cool initiative I say. At least staff can get from the parking spaces
Great idea. I had to drive around for ages today to get a park just to get groceries. Nikky Lohmann. Approximately seven minute walk each way, think of how many healthy workers at the Mall.... brilliant idea especially for the paying customers, and yes, shuttle is available!! Ka Pai to the organisers of this fantastic initiative for Richmond!! Sarah-Hope Bailey. It would be a great idea if you catered for all the staff that work at the mall, I’m sure (I know) there are people who work outside the time a shuttle is going to be running, what are you doing for them? Verte Nails & Beauty. Who’s going to park their car at the show grounds and wait to get a ride to the mall? Easy pickings for car to be stolen. Terry Beach. Have you say, text 027 UR VOICE.

Just a thought... Greig Caigou, Hope Community Church
During the summer many of us get away on summertime holidays, pursuing some rest and relaxation in some happy place. Perhaps for you this is at one of our beaut seaside campsites or even at a family bach. Here old jigsaws can be laid out and worked together or an interesting book
devoured, in between eating food, setting the flounder net and swimming with the kids or grandchildren. Some folk take holidays to new parts of our country (or even to foreign parts). Some others like to head for our wonderful back-country, by bike or shankspony, carrying on their backs the things of adventuring . . . tents, cookers, layered clothing and lightweight
food. My preferred ‘happy place’ is out in such wilderness, usually on top of some high mountain ridge. There is often a hard slog involved to gain altitude, but true to most such climbs, there is the reward of great views once you arrive ‘on high’. Once I recall ascending toward the main ridge high above the Wilberforce River where I eventually sat down in my happy place. I sat there for a long time, reflecting on my adventures, wild moments and beaut encounters with wildlife along the way. While gazing out over the fantastic vista
of mountainscapes, listening for the deepest things, I was filled with the wonder of everything. I had a sense that God asked me then, ‘And . . . what do you see?’ I could only reply, ‘I see You.’ I’m often overwhelmed by the majesty I experience when in these lofty wild spaces. I think all this wonder amidst the mountains also gives us a glimpse of the glories of God. At this time of year, when you are at rest in your ‘happy place’, perhaps you could ask God to give you a fresh awareness of who Jesus is: God, with us!

The rain appeared the morning of the first day of the 121st Golden Edge Nelson A&P show, however, the sun came out to play on Sunday and so did the people. Show manager, Annette Robinson, says although Saturday’s rain kept people away in the morning, Sunday’s sunshine brought in the crowds. “Sunday was absolutely fantastic, I haven’t seen those kinds of numbers ever on a Sunday, the whole day had a great atmosphere and we couldn’t have asked for more. We received great feedback from our stallholders and we are very pleased with how the show went,” says Annette. New to the show this year was the Vortex Spas Top of the South strong man competition which saw both men and women competing in events such as a log clean and press, lifting of a huge atlas stone and a 25 metre hand over hand truck pull. The more traditional competitions of wood chopping, sheep shearing, equestrian, dog trials and animal judging remained strong with the same number of animals registered as in previ- Juggling unicyclist, Gareth Shivers entertaining the ous years. crowds at the A&P Show.

Property insights No Code Compliance Certificate (CCC) If this is your situation and you are thinking of selling, then I suggest that you call into the council and complete the application form requesting a final inspection. A building inspector will make arrangements to meet with you and check that the work has been completed in accordance with the building consent that was issued. They may ask for a copy of the electrical certificate or the drain layer’s certificate, which are required to be lodged on the file. They may say that everything is in order and will sign off the works and recommend that a CCC be issued. If the inspector finds a few bits and pieces that require your attention, he or she will list these for you and return at your request to inspect the remedial work before signing off.

Peter, born in 1920, was also well known for his sense of humour, quick wit and passion for sailing. Duke & Cooke have grown significantly from its days as a two-man partnership, now employing seven valuers and four administration staff. From its initial beginnings to today, Duke & Cooke have been at the forefront of the valuation profession in the Nelson region. While

History is part of its exceptionality, along with their approach to business and the workplace environment. “One of the philosophy’s of Duke & Cooke is that we have always worked on being a team of professionals; professional valuers and professional administration staff. Everyone here at Duke & Cooke has always been treated as part of a team that is focused on getting the best job done for our clients. We have a really good team spirit here, everyone gets on with everyone else and it creates a great atmosphere. When we’re employing anyone new for the company, we don’t just look at them in terms of their
qualifications, but how they’re going to fit in to the overall dynamics of the office,” says Murray. Murray is a born and bred valuer, and is currently the longest serving director, having been with the company for 31 of its 50 years. “When I left college I didn’t know what else to do. I had a brother-in-law who was a valuer and it looked like a pretty good job; a bit of indoor work and a bit of outdoor work. That’s what appealed to me at that stage, and it’s been a good decision.” Because of the specialist skills required for the job, many valuers around the country have only ever been in the profession, but it’s the challenge and change of the

3 Salisbury Rd, Richmond Nelson Tigers are ready to tear up the competition in this season of super stockcar racing. Although they didn’t come off the track with any of the big titles they’d been hoping for last year, they have still managed to maintain their place as the number two team and are looking for victory this time round. The
driver pool of 10 includes core team members Jared Gray, Shane Harwood and Blair Cunningham as well as new members; Alex Bright, Anthony McKenzie and Alex Hill, who are looking to make their mark on the competition this season. With the season having been underway since September, race
meetings are in full swing and with no other training opportunities, these regular race nights give drivers the chance to practice for the bigger competitions. Focusing especially on knowing who’s winning the race and attempting to halt their progress. Their first one-off teams race is also an opportunity to see where

as good as anywhere else in the country. While maintaining a good track record with the one-off team races is important, the ultimate competition for the New Zealand world of super stock lies in the New Zealand Teams Championships. Held over two days from February 6 until February 7, it’s the race every team strives to win, and one Nelson hasn’t taken out since 2010. Twelve teams from around New Zealand participate in the competition, with the Palmerston North Panthers rated as the top team in the country. Along with car reliability and the skills of the driver, a certain degree of luck is relied on, which Nelson hopes it will be taking with it on race night. Following team’s champs, drivers gather in Auckland for the second major tournament or the year; New Zealand Teams Nationals, where drivers can redeem themselves if their performances at the champs didn’t reap a reward. This weekend the Nelson Tigers will also be available for a meet and greet at Richmond’s Super Liquor from 1pm. If you’re a Tigers fan, come along, meet the drivers and see the cars.

Waimea athlete focused on nationals Simon Bloomberg
Waimea College athlete, Katie Thompson, will be focusing on the jumping events when she competes in next month’s national secondary schools championships in Whanganui. The talented 17-year-old competed in the long and triple jump and 100 metre sprint in her last big meeting at the club nationals in March. However, Katie says that “it was hard to focus on all three of them” and has decided to put all her energy into her two strongest events, the long and triple
jump, for the December 6 and 7 meeting at Cooks Gardens. Katie is also hoping that some technical adjustments and intensive training drills, suggested by Athletics New Zealand’s high performance coach Terry Lomax, will help her in both disciplines. She is spending a lot of time in training, improving the fundamentals of her triple jump and says it’s likely to be a while before the changes translate into better performances. “Terry told me I need to focus on my long jump take off and how my feet leave the ground to get to the next level,” Katie says.
“He also wants me to work on the fundamentals of my triple jump and has me doing lots of drills - it’s quite frustrating because I will probably go backwards before I start to improve so I will just have to be patient.” Katie is hopeful she makes enough progress in her triple jump to be competitive at the secondary schools nationals. However, she is happy with her form in the long jump despite a tough day at the office at the Tasman Clubs champs at Saxton Field last Saturday. “I only jumped 4.95 metres and my per-
sonal best is 5.53 but it wasn’t the best conditions,” she says referring to the strong wind that made life difficult for all the athletes. Katie had recorded her personal best when finishing second in the under-18 long jump at the national club champs in Wellington in March and hopes to replicate that sort of form at the secondary school’s champs. “I’m really looking forward to going to Whanganui and seeing everyone and competing at the next level.” Katie will compete in the long jump on Saturday and triple jump on Sunday.

Fishing with
Nelson Dawnbreakers Fishing Club Plenty of reports coming in now of snapper being caught around the bay. I have heard of two fish over 30 lb caught on set-line and fish up to 85cm on rod and reel. With set-lines being a highly productive method of catching a good feed of snapper, we would also like to mention the practice of catch and release. I personally am not opposed to anyone catching their personal best biggest snapper and keeping it to get a photo, the actual weight and also to show to the wife, kids or family. However, in saying that, as a club we encourage our members to “fish by length,” by measuring the length of the fish for our competition and also for a nationwide competition. This gives us the chance to catch and release these bigger prime breeding snapper after taking a couple of ‘live’ photos and, of course, measuring. It can be extremely satisfying to watch those big fish swim off into the depths right by the side of the boat. So, to aid with this method, if you choose to release some of the bigger
ones and keep the “pannies” as your eaters, then try to only leave your set-lines down for about an hour. This will keep the fish in a reasonable state of health for release and still be plenty of time to catch them if they are in that area. Release at the side of the boat in the water if possible, or use a net to gather the fish and contain it while the hook is removed, wet your hands with saltwater, get some shots and then let it go over the side. Kenepuru has had a couple of decent fish caught recently and plenty of seven gill sharks are still around. Rabbit Island is fishing well for those with kayaks, kontikis, kite long-liners and nets set out at low tide. There’s a fishing competition on Saturday 29th hosted by Tasman Bay Anglers Club, it’s not too late to enter up until 5pm at ENL Nelson, or simply go for a look at the weigh-in, down at the Motueka boat ramp on Saturday at 4pm. Enjoy the awesome place we live in by getting out for a fish from boat, wharf or land.
