Onehunga Wharf Fishing #1

Last two weeks we went to Onehunga Wharf to fish. It was my first time fishing and I was quite excited ^^ Onehunga is located approximately 25 min drive from Auckland city centre. We departed from home around 3pm but after 40 mins of drive and a couple of wrong turns, we still couldn't find the fishing spot. We ended up asking one passer by on the street which directed us to Mangere beach. We decided to give it a shot and when we arrived, all of us were really excited as along the bridge there were heaps of people fishing!

We were thinking that this must be a good fishing spot and the weather was beautiful that day so we would surely get some fishes. Kk, Don and Daren wasted no time in setting up their rods and off they go.


Daren was acting ''cool'' in the car :p


Our bait - squid

Daren again ''acting cute'' :p




As the weather was really sunny, all of us wore t-shirt and shorts, but the wind turn up to be pretty strong and it gotten pretty chilly after a while. After about 2 hours of fishing, we still couldn't get any fish. Daren and I decided to take a walk and take some photos.

Our hair was quite messy because of the strong wind

While walking, we saw some jelly fishes...



At last, we ended up going home empty handed. As all of us were hungry, we went back to Auckland city to have our dinner. We went to the Wong Kok Char Chan Teng and ordered the famous dish there - hokkien mee. We also ordered fish as we couldn't get any fish that day haha...

Nice but still lose to the hokkien mee in Malaysia ^^

Fried bean sprout

Spicy fried chicken

Sweet and sour fish

The food there was quite delicious but I was really disappointed as the service was quite bad. After dinner, we went home as everyone was really tired.
