Well team it is going to happen . I have just heard back from DOC about collecting mollies,etc.
This is going to be a weekend away and is open to all members of the FNZAS or other fishkeepers that wish to come along.
The weekend will the the 15th & 16th of November.
The following is a rough intineary
Meet at the Prawn Park in Taupo at 10am on the 15th Nov. This is located down the huka falls loop road.
There wie will have a guided tour of the prawn park etc . After the tour we will eat a few prawns the most enjoyable thing after meeting and greeting them !!!.
Leave at 12pm so we can make our way to the National Trout Centre for another tour at 1pm .As i said we have a tour aranged of the trout centre I have done this previously and it was very imformative .
After our vsit to the Trout centre we will make our way to the Oasis Motel in Tokaanu . I am thinking we could have a BBQ at the hot pools or something that evening . Wanting to hear back on prices of accomadation but last time we stayed there it was very reasonable.
On the morning of the 16th we will then make our way to the thermal swamp to collect the mollies. My method is a pond net a bucket and getting right amoungest it . You wil need old shoes , old clothes , net , bucket , air pump , chilli bin , towel and most imporatanly alot of ethusiam.
I will be emailing and posting details to clubs . So if you are interested feel free to email or phone me (07)8495275 so i can put your name down for this
weekend.
