2026-27 Fishing Season Opens Across New Zealand
New Zealand's 2026-27 freshwater fishing season has opened, with anglers encouraged to head to rivers and lakes over the coming days as conditions look favourable across much of the country.
As usual, it was a great success - including the fishing.
Our hero packaged a couple of boxes of fish to bring back home.
All labelled correctly, he waited at the Auckland baggage carousel; his luggage came along but no boxes of fish.
After waiting, he enquired at the bag counter and was advised to look at a door as sometimes these packages were left there.
It was suggested he leave his address and they'd courier the fish to him if they were ever found.
Getting a little hot under the collar, our mate asked where the police desk was so he could report the fish boxe missing or stolen.
Shortly, a trolley arrived with the said two boxes of fish.
Perhaps, some mutts thought they were in for a free feed.
