Got to Rosville Ramp 6am and hit the squiding/yakka grounds. With 20 squid and a bunch of yakkas started fishing inside the harbour hoping things would be different compared to last week but there was no kings to be found inside the heads not even the 798 could pick one up. So we ventured outside against tsunami warnings lol We managed 4 kings and 3 bonito in half an hour of arrival, then the Revenue collectors turn up (NSW Maritme) got slapped with $100 fine for having expired flares and told to stay inside the heads. Day ruined as not much was happening inside the heads, caught a few more fresh squid for dinner a set of home. Anyone have an insight why the Kings are not in middle harbour?

Bad luck mate, Inside the harbour hasnt produced any fish for us last week and today, went outside the heads any presto!
-
Great catch mate, we fished in the harbour today for ZILCH lol
-
Love your work
-
Nice fish guys, we were out on saturday and managed only one keeper of 78 about 6 64cm's and a few bustoffs!
All caught on yakers though.
Inside or outside the heads?? We used yakkas to but only got a bonnie
-
those squid dont look half bad they still have color / pigmentation
the eyes are still have some green in them although they are now white colored let us know how you go as i always freeze mine double bagged

Check out the report Sydney Kings, we didnt catch any fresh on the day and all were caught on 48hr old squid
-
Nice catch, what bait did the damage?
-
Inside North Head on squid

Hey guys just a quick report, went out Saturday morning in the rainy conditions managed 6 Kings a one bonnie, biggest King going 90cm
-
Going out tomorrow in the harbour with my 48hr old squid hopefully there around. Heres a pic of what they look like 48hrs later

I dont freeze them just keep them in a cold fridge, air tight. The heads nearly always get hit by kings but ive noticed the strips are less effective over freshly caught squid tubes. And yes we still hit the squiding grounds early in the morning. But its always good to have a plan B if the squid dont bite on the day. In my experiance its all about how fussy the kings are on the day, as ive seen them turn there nose up at a freshly caught squid and other days they would hit my 4 day old (Fridged) squid
-
Yeah been thinking that, always seem to do better on the heads any how. And calamari is my fav seafood. I`ll keep you guys posted, might go out this arvo as the weekend dosnt look so good weather wise
-
Went out the other night for a quick squid session, managed a dozen in a little over an hour. Now gotta hope the kingys are on the chew in the harbour
-
Kingfish get even worse sometimes
-
Orange work for us, saw schools of squid follow the jigs up but wouldnt have a bar of any other colour
-
Went out on the 25th, all started well with over a dozen squid in the live bait tank. Get to our first mark and bang! a small rat emmediatly. But that was all and for the rest of the day we watch our fresh bait get destroyed by pickers
Its been the most disappointing trip in a whileHow did others go??
-
Did okay today. Managed 4 squid and plenty of yellowtail at balmoral, Ended up with 5 Kings lost 3 others. Biggest going 98cm all others were rats
-
Some people just dont have fishing edicate, had the same situation at balmoral few weeks back. Lost a yo zuri aswell. (Not cheap)
-
Just a quick post, went out the last two weekend in search of kings. Managed 6 fish on each outing, the majority taken on squid. Some also fell to yakkas and sluggos. Does anyone else notice the squid heads are more readily taken over a squid strip? As this is my first season chasing kings and starting to realizing how fussy and frustrating they can be even after busting your guts trying to find fresh bait
Tight Lines every1
PS Can anyone help me out with attaching Photos, is 10mb the maximun file size??
-
Went out last saturday managed 4 squid an hour before high tide, but no Kings. Was expecting atleast one after reading reports the previous 4 days
-
Good effort, we got onto the water about the same time but couldnt find one squid, caught a mixed bag though. Not the Kingy we were chasing and it was entertaining to see all the boats chasing the birds and school of fish feeding. Anyone know what they were??? Samon i take it as not much people were hooking up due to the small bait they were feeding on
Its been the most disappointing trip in a while
