Hundreds of surfing enthusiasts flocked to New Zealand's first Fish Fry at Waipu Cove.
Yesterday's event saw local and international surfers and shapers converge on Waipu Cove beach to discuss boards and surfing in New Zealand.
Organiser - and Northern Advocate photographer - Michael Cunningham said he was extremely pleased with the turnout.
"We've got international and local people. The guy from San Diego [Sean Mattison] is one of the founders of the Fish Fry movement, so it's awesome to have him here.
"Everyone's got into the spirit. It's not a commercial day. It's about meeting people, talking about boards, meeting shapers and having fun," he said.
