First Trip Out!

It was a glorious, sunny and calm water day so perfect for testing the boat. Even Titan decided to join us, while Millie was walking with Mum at 'Dogs Day Out'.



We launched into Lake Rotorua (from Hamurana) and headed out around Mokia Island, then moored up at Hannah's Bay over the far side of the lake. Titan had a bit of a run around and we put the canopy up on the boat and John set up his fishing line. After about 20 minutes of trolling we caught a 2.5 lb trout, a tiddler but decided to keep it for dinner!






It was a wonderful first trip out and hopefully the start of many, only another 12 lakes to explore around the Rotorua area, then ocean here we come!
