Good to hear! I'm heading down this coming weekend. Be very appreciative of any marks or pointers PM'd to me Both in the lake and outside from Swansea. Cheers, Steve.

Good work squidboy.. took you a while to finally cotton on to our techniques!! Glad you and your dad are now getting some success at my fave spot Dale and I went out last night for a session, Dale got a king before the sun went down, then got in to some trevs. Nice Jews btw - same spot we fished last time? I have been scoping out some fishy looking holes on the other side of the river recently. S.

Was a good session and surprising to see the kings STILL firing! They have been consistant this year since early october!!! The kings beat me this time... 30lb + 50lb leader I don't really want to step up as I like to fish the gently gently approach and get more of a buzz from the lighter line buzzing off my spool. Next time gadget! Steve.

Hey raiders, Looking to get out this weekend for the first time to some inshore reefs to jig up some kings. I've not done this type of fishing before and am looking for a few marks to get me started. I am heading out of Syd Harbour and would appreciate a point in the right direction. Feel free to PM me any information. Cheers & have a good anzac day. Steve (skunga)

Hi, I have the week march 10-15th off work if you need a spot on boat. I will be chasing kingfish in the harbour and pittwater - send me a PM if you are interested. Cheers Steve.

AJ PM me - I have the week off 10th - 15th: I will be chasing kings in the harbour on my boat (5.2m) Cheers Steve.

Yeap with you on the 6500 - built like a truck. I match mine to an ugly stick. I paid about $300 all up, without line.

Thanks for your responses, boat has now been sold. Cheers Steve.

Packing my bags for 6week holiday in Argentina Fly out on sunday, leaving the harbour kings alone for the rest of you Have a good xmas/new years and stay safe! Steve.

Will be watching this thread as I'm very interested to get into this in the future. zero experience here

Rod, I use anything up to 2oz on the big plastics... was using a very small running sinker to a worm hook on 9" plastics on sunday tho.. really depends on how hard the current is running and where in the water column the fish are holding. Cheers, Steve.

Good to see you into them!! happy days on the kings with the light gear. forget about the knockers.. catching fish you were targeting with your mates is what its all about right? Cheers Steve.

Took Spongy out for a plastics session on sunday afternoon.. Sunny with a bit of wind so I cant complain. Met Jeff at the boat ramp and headed out to a few spots in the harbour. First cast met with 2 kings chasing a big 9" plastic back to the boat.. good sign for the run out tide. After 10 mins of not a lot else we pushed on to the next spot.. A few casts and I get a touch.. Tap tap zzzzzing - away I go on 12lb line - the fish and i playing tug of war for a min or two when Ping- 40lb leader lets go - OUCH... retrieved to see the leader roughed up: only ever one power dive away from freedom! Get out the heavier rod and start working the area - a few more follows from some fish including one BEAST in the school - would have gone 8kg, dwarfed the other fish in the water... Not to be outdone and after picking up a few new techniques, Jeff calls a fish on a small white sluggo, his rod buckling over and the tussle of the fight was on - oooh's and the ahhh's from jeff as the drag sung its sweet song and a few mins later an undersized rat was boated. Big smile on Jeff's face - a quick pic on the phone and back for another swim. Congrats on your first king! The wind got up after that and we didnt get much more after that.. Called it a day with more sessions to come. Pics to come. Cheers, Steve.
