fishing
A we have already been to NZ and tried the fishing I was wondering as to when we do emigrate (soon I hope) can I bring my fishing gear with me as it is all usable in NZ for the different types of fishing available.Any known restrictions on this being imported.?

I expect to do some type of coarse fishing and as always Fly fishing .It is not a problem if the nets have to go but the flies are a lifetime collection of skilled manufacture .I do not mind giving up the coarse lines but when you pay out good money for fly line it is disheartening to have to loose them .I also sea fish coming from a fishing town on the east coast it is in my blood .

Re: fishing
ooo i had been wondering the same. I am a carp fisher(wo)man- dont spose there is much call for wild carp out there? so will probably sell a lot of the carp tackle and just bring coarse and fly tackle.
if we were to buy brand new nets/landing mats/slings etc... then there wouldnt be a prob bringing it. is there legislation on the size of nets/hooks/shot blah blah?
on my list of things to check out over the next 12 months!

Re: fishing
thought this would be a good place to post this to let people know about www.coarsefishing.co.nz
if anyone is thinking of coming down here and wants to know about the coarse fishing scene check the site out... i started the site about 6 months ago because there wasnt a dedicated coarse fishing website based in NZ.
