The annual beach cleanup is taking place on Sunday 28th January 2007. Meet at 10am at the wharf. Rubbish bags and disposable gloves will be provided.
There will be a BBQ afterwards at Sandy Bay and prizes for the most interesting finds.
Sam Orton on holiday from Christchurch with his dad caught this 16.6Kg Kingfish from the Rakino wharf. Sam caught his fish live baiting on piper.
Shock Horror! People are putting used shell fish, fish frames and even dead birds in the rubbish bins. Please desist from putting these foul smelly things in the bins. Replace what you take from the sea to the sea, use it as burly or just chuck it in the ocean round the rocks. The fish will clean any remains. Help keep our rates down and the bins clean and sweet smelling!
