Back in mid-April 
2024, editor Matt 
Hewetson and 
Lanza rod builder 
Graeme Paterson, 
got out on the 
Kaipara harbour 
and enjoyed 
some outstanding 
autumntime fishing. 
The snapper were 
hungry and taking 
cut kahawai baits 
and softbaits in the 
shallows, with the 
bin full (under the 
limit of 20 fish for 
two people), in less 
than two hours.  
The west is best!
