Oh well then I better put an end to the head scratching. The first one is the strip ar Gorge River and the 2nd one is the mouth of the mighty Cascade or the Cascade whitebait camp.

ahhhh... there we go!
Couldn't agree more Corky! Used to be about this time of year that once the whitebaiters had been in for a wee while, I'd drop the Islander on Big Bay on the way to NZMF (pax loved it!) and drop them off a wee bottle, a couple of newspapers and a kilo or two of rump steak... always got a feed of the white gold whilst there and at least 4-5 1/2-kilo bags frozen to take home! Great days, miss 'em & the places/people...

Remember a big old hollowed out log bath tub on a strip down that way back in the sixties?
The Whitebaitin' technique in them days was falling in the river with ya mouth open.
Deer was like sandflies....

Is that the same BSH that I took down the West Coast on June 5, 6. 7th June1960??? It was a PA22 piper tripacer, painted red and owned by the Rotorua Aero club in those days. If it is must have had a charmed life, have seen that machine land at Rotorua with a heavyweight family onboard, returning from Air Force Reserve training Wigram, after landing Rotorua it was running on the nose, mains and the tail skid, must have had very good rubber bungees!!!
