Down at Sydney fish markets 2 weeks ago and seen Kingfish around 50cm for sale. Is that Legal?

Thats a top report and great catch.

Does anybody know, where I can find information as to what size a bream, Kingfish or snapper breed at? cheers thereddragon

Mabey docs should have a word to this chap.

Always said no to the georges after rain, perhaps I need to reconsider. Congrats on the fish.

Hi, I fish the botany bay usually once every week, and have found that the fishing for some species in the rain is better, however the majority go off the bite. Do you also have the same problem or do you have an explaination? cheers,

go to the end of container wall and fish with livies for kings or try the oilwarf, third runnway, drums, molipoint, they are everywere.

Buy fishing NSW monthly issue and check out the fishing report in your area.

go the slimmys or mabey 20kg puffer

Australian Salmon yummo, oven with chilly and lime.

Thanks for the replies, just got back from a hunting trip. Nectic Ive found where in the bay the reds hang out but can't manage any over 30cm, mabbey i need to buy a fishfinder. The flatthead on the other hand I might need some pointers from robeebee he seems to have nutted them out. Mondo I think your right I got to get a bigger boat and chase some fin, however I have fluked a few 10kg+ gummy's in the bay. jewgaffer I hear what youre saying, but the only interest i have is not the challenge of the fight, but the challenge of the size of the fish. I have caught kingys on my bream rod and yes harder to catch but at the end of the day still a kingy. Huntman Kingys would have to be the most prolific feeder in and around the bay I have caught them using plastic, any fish that would try to eat plastic would eat anything I rekon. Ask jewgaffer how easy they are to target. robeebee I usually rig up my baitrunner 6500B with 25pound line, also my flickstick with 2500 stradic 30p braid. also with my pen overhead running 50pound line which I only rig up with big baits and tackle

Hi, Just need some info on what big fish I can target other than Kingfish in botany bay. Im sick and tired of catching kings, I know that may sound unsual to some but to others they know what Im talking about, please help. cheers, Thereddragon

That should be some kind of record, catching 16kg kingfish and being towed around in a 13ft tinnie for 20 mins on 30lb braid. That amazing well done on a fantastic catch.

Great report welcom to fishraider
