About two years ago I drove around to one of the tributaries of the Waikato
River east of Huntley. It drains one of the Waikato lakes. Three fit young
men were trying to pull in their 10/12 ft aluminium dinghy. It was too
heavy to pull up the ramp. It was full, nearly to the gunwales, with carp
weighing upto about 12 pounds. They had been shooting them with bows and
arrows! If you want carp fishing just come here and help youselves. Free.
Just don't leave the fish alive unless you want a $10,000 fine. A friend of
mine told me yesterday of a 40 pounder caught in gravel pond. Does anyone
want a nice large one stuffed and mounted?
