hey guys i never caught any yellowtail at yowie jetty. know anywhere to catch them?

get away time hey?

sorry to hear that. i got stuff stolen from my car. report it to the police and the stuff was never returned. I just hope your insurance over all those stuff dude.

what about salmon?

Thanks you guys for your all your wonderful replies i will try to hook my first legal king next time.

Bassday Sugar Minnow Lipless. Try it and you will love it.

I hope we both catch that legal king that we wanted n sashimi with it!

Today went to one of the wharf at port hacking bay. Got there early in the morning before sunrise to catch some yellowtails. Nothing touched the livebait all day. Around 1pm the water started to boil and i threw my fav pencil. BANG! something hooked it! i was really excited because i thought it was a kingfish. The fish just kept on taking line after line. And later i gained some line back. At all times, i thought i was going to lose the fish and my favour pencil lure again(I have lost the same $25 lure to a king before), because the fish just runs like crazy! I do not know how long it took, but in the end i saw the body and knew it was a bonito. I had mix feelings because it was a damn big bonito, but i was hoping for a king. It took a lot of tries before the bonnie went into the net. I guess I aint lucky today! will try again next time! I want my first legal king!

i catch alot of these. are they good to eat? i always release them

hey guys i saw the new penn vsx model. i guess these are made from china now. Has anyone used these reels? Are they better than the vsw in quality wise?

i am new to kayak fishing, however i use to do kayaking regularly during high school. i guess kayaking is not as easy as it seems to be.

I am not worried about using too much energy with my arms in the paddling with lures, it more about me paddling with a livebait behind and always have that right tension with the line. I thought the whole concept of pedalling is that ur lower body has more muscles and can make you go faster and longer. and thanks for your suggestion about once you get a fish it is hard to pedal i guess i have to paddle once i get a fish

Hey guys Im looking to get a kayak after I saw this video where a guy caught a marlin from a yak. I was thinking of getting hobie adventure because 1. It is a pedal kayak so I have free hands to fish as well as I am able to troll easily without getting tired. 2. I choose adventure because i want to go fish near the ocean and it can take some waves and it is stable the downside to adventure is that it has weight capacity of 160kg and I am 90kg and with gear probably 120 (cuz i will get a live tank 25L) that leaves me with 40kg capacity. I always imagine me catching a big tuna or marlin one day and i dont if the kayak can hold the fish. The other option is to get the ocean kayak 4.7 ultra. that kayak has 260kg capacity, but it is not a pedal kayak and I dont want to troll all day with my arms and i also dont want to get the motor. anyhow guys, do you guys thinking 40kg of weight capacity is enough if i want to catch tunas and marlin in a years time? and of cuz i need to lose weight so i can have more capacity on my kayak =P
