Kelvin and the other fish raiders, Thanks for all the advise in this post. For an amateur like me, it will give me ideas on what I can try next when I out and hopefully get a fraction of the success that you have had. Cheers Ken

Well done on getting those kingies , we were out yesterday, got squid; trolled middle harbour, fished the markers, etc with only one 59cm rat to show for it. Got a great tan regardless and was treated to the site of about 200 yachts around 2pm.

Guys, Thanks for the great welcome and responses . Just finised preparing the gear for tomorrow venture into the harbour, nothing worse then trying to do a rig when the actions on. Hope to see you all out there with something big on the other end, and if that don't happen, then it sure beats working

Hi Guys, Had the opportunity to boat fish this beautiful harbour of ours over the past two months, being a shore fisherman for may years priors. My goals was quite simple, I wanted to catch myself a nice kingfish, having only caught one undersized 59cm version prior. Well I can positively say "I have been amazed", spending quality time with with my little brother and a mate, seeing schools of king fish charging our bait, others skimming along the surface to have a look at my sluggo before retreating back, and others busting the S$#% out of our gear. We have also caught, and nothing and I mean nothing beats the heart pounding, hand shaking experience of catching a nice fish. In that time, I have been lucky enough to catch numerous kingfish, my fish jewfish (83cm, 8+kg), first squid only two weeks ago, and most enjoyable bonito on bream gear. It has been a blast, can't wait for this weekend. Hope to catch you out there soon, and looking forward to reading those amazing posts
