Hapuku (groper) bass and Bluenose
These three popular recreational species are quite often incorrectly lumped together, under the heading ‘hapuku’.
When the angler in your household says he is heading out ‘’puka fishing’ he generally means he is targeting all three species. They all live, as a rule, in water 100 metres-plus deep with bass and bluenose in particular being cellar dwellers.
All three have similar eating qualities. Their flesh is firm and white, and as a group of species they are much sought after in the eating stakes.
