KEY POINTS:
Whitebait season wraps up today and it has been a mixed bag in Canterbury.
Cold weather at the start of the season made for slim pickings and high prices, but by all accounts things picked up slightly at the end.
The season on the West Coast finished mid-way through this month with some saying it was the worst in 17 years.
The shortages contributed to prices of more than $130 a kilogram at times.
