6ix Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Not much of a story, but I thought I'd record it anyway - this is the place that really got me started - in these rocks I found a bone, and a contact at the Canterbury Museum identified it as a whale rib - at least 12mya. From there I was hooked and that was 10 years ago. We dont come out here much, last time tinbum broke the powersteering on my 4wd doing doughnuts on the beach when he was 10 LOL. This is Pegasus bay, and Amberley rocks is the North end, the other is in Christchurch. Anyway - into the shell layers.. Closeup of those boulders...

Ruger9a Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Looks like a beautiful, soothing/pleasant place to hunt. Especially with family members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ix Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 Yep @Ruger9a Its a really nice spot... this was high tide, at low tide there are rock pools and we even caught an octopus once... but "soothing" - ya gotta be real careful... those rocks are razor blades... one slip and the red comes out very easily.
