Our pleasure! More to come so please stay tuned 😀 Feel free to share these videos with your friends as well ......cheers

Just an absolutely beautiful day mid winter ..... Had to get out and take advantage of the sun for sure...cheers

Yes, the Lake gets very busy in the Summer. I used to Ski competitively, still get the odd slalom in but given away the tricks and jumping. Leave all that to the Grandkids who are National chaps for their age group. My son skied for NZ many times and still competes at the top levels in NZ... cheers

Thanks Ali...... cheers

Sure is Joseph, mid winter here in New Zealand. This was one of those beautiful sunny days of winter so we made the best of it ...cheers

Mid winter, but still quite a few out walking their dogs... cheers

@@ZL1BQDRoly Hamilton Road Runners go running out there a few times a year too :) On Sundays so we won't trip over your wires..

@@krjames5880 No chance of that, I make sure any wires are well off the ground so that they cannot be touched or tripped over. A great place to get out and run in though.... cheers

Great, I will be operating from another Lake tomorrow (Sunday) from mid Waikato region, Lake Kaituna ZLL-0207. Look for me either on 5.353 CW or 7.032 CW or 7.100 SSB........cheers p.s. what is your call?

You are just looking for an excuse for a return visit Robbie. Can you remember where you were fishing? I will go and activate it on your behalf.... cheers

@@ZL1BQDRoly Ha that's not fair Roly, I spent allot of time fishing the Waitahanu River and where it enters the lake, on the NZ State Highway 1...Right at the bridge, I was fishing in the lake where the cool river current entered the warm water from the lake, lots of fish and lots of fun, and yes I plan on returning.. :-) Great channel Roly de Ei2iP. I worked VK7RG on ssb & VK7JB on cw, 20M last week.

I know that location well Robbie. Well next time let me take you to some secret spots up one or two of the feeder rivers and have some real fun .... cheers
