omfg what a king mate... lifetime catch to remember pal.

nice fishin mate.

under the fig tree bridge , gladesville , no toilets about... but great big grassy area.... bream , flattys and jews. Brad

heard the kings go off there

id be spinning 60g raiders off palmy with 20lb flurocarbon, trace... the extra length metal and a bit heavier trace... they have teeth from hell and might even hook a kingy... Goodluck mate

Wouldnt bother there mate... REALLY quiet at night... and during the day its always packed but kingys, salmon, tailor are common....... itd be even more packed because of the holidays aswell .... Brad

legend!!

your lucky mate, i tried my best spot with NOTHING cant believe it.... i usally end up with 10 squid everytime ive been...

Hey fellas , well i thought this would be a interesting topic... Whats your favourite big game lures.. whether it be popping, spinning, jigging , trolling... Ill start off, mine has to be the pakula dogo peche for trolling and the cd 9 in pilchard colour. For popping , the halco rooster 150's .. such a good action.. and for tuna... the tuna trembler by black magic Whats yours?

nice king bloke

good on ya bloke. Looks like a nice setup you got there too $$$

In my experience mate they are really fast growers... just wait till later summer and theyll be some good reports of some killer kingys been caught in the harbour... same deal with last year.

SWR sounds too dangerous.. even that back creek can become un accessible on days due to the low tide thing.. Got a mother with MS so its needs to be pretty safe... Am i asking to much? time to goto WA?

Are you landbased? or in a boat... If in a boat try going around the shore banks flicking lures under nearth fallen trees , shady structure... Peoples private wharves... Prawns make a good bream bait ive found aswell.... Brad

So south west rocks would be my best bet?

Hey guys, I want somewhere off NSW that has calm waters and non dangerous bar crossing ... wanting to chase those bigger game fish... mackeral, cobes, tuna ..... All close to land in a 12 foot tinny... Ill be taking the family down and need accomodation aswell. Brad

hey mate was out there saturday... pretty sure i saw you in the distance at clark island.... we got no kingys at all... flicking sluggos and poppers and fresh squid strips all day around the bouys and all!

Hey steve... I spend half my fishing squidding ... Monday tuesdays wednesdays are bait... the rest is fishin. Brad

Thanks for the replys guys...still am very shocked.... Under the fig tree bridge, its a great spot, keeps away the rain... the best side to fish is on the LOOP road side... cast towards the pylons about 10 M away... Brad

Hey guys been waiting AGES for this First of all would like to thank jewgaffer (byron) for his help and talk on the phone for helping me catching this elusive fish. Your a true legend and i owe everything to you. I woke up this morning and looked outside and it was pissing down... I remembered jewgaffer telling me that the fishing is good after a good days rain..... Lowtide was at 2:30... so i rigged up my lines at 9:00 and checked all the fishing reports and went back to sleep... Woke back up at 1:00 , drove down to fig tree bridge and set a rod out while i was flicking a big plastic. I was using squid that i had caught awhile ago... but they were still fresh as they were vacuumed sealed. As soon as I arrived i set out the baitrunner with a squid strip and using byrons advice using a two hook rig. The tailor were everywhere and they were picking the squid to bits till there was nothing left.... The same story went by for another 2 hours.... By this time it was around 3ish.... This time i chucked out a full squid ...... 10 minutes went by and while i was flicking around a 5inch jerkshad... i saw some mullet in front of me just leap out of the water... they wernt small ethier.... the water turned to glass and i had a funny feeling..... Put down the softplastic rod and lit up a smoke.... and then BANG ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz all hell broke loose and he was heading straight for the pylons... i thumbed the spool and turned his head.. after zig zagging all over the place ... 10 minutes later finally gaffed him.. Stoked!! Once again thankyou so much byron! Brad!!

Most of my flattys are taken on SPS..... for me they outfish bait anytime!!

hey jewgaffer im in north ryde... I was about to ring you yesterday until i found out ive cleared all my private messages and lost your number. Your inbox is also full cheers mate, Brad

Definatley the stella 8000 mate, I think the 20000 would be a bit big for what im after... Im in the same boat as you. Dont really need anything bigger in sydney for the kingys unless your cubing up YFT. Downrigging , livebaiting , great reel and would reduce the bust ups . Those bloody sydney kings aint getting smaller every year....

Hey guys , just recently got the sack from work.... Since its near christmas theres no jobs around so im looking for a mate to go fishing with... Will pay half the fuel costs... im great at catching bait and know some good squid spots... and do have all my own gear. Brad

Mine was when i was young and stupid going 2ks offshore in a 11foot tinny, Conditions CHANGED out of nowhere, we finally made it back to tunks in 2 hours. Was fearing for my life... and the amount of bloody stellas we had onboard. Never EVER again.
