Hey fellow raiders,
Im planning a bucks party for my friend and we always fished land based together, but he did hint to me he wanted to do some boat fishing, any good charters around in central coast or Wollongong?
Cheers!

Hey guys, haven't posted in a while but I've been squidding these days with my brother in law and his mate.
First stop Chinaman's bay, headed out and a couple of squid came out and we ended up bagging up on them
Got a couple and then BANG got a big one and bagged up and headed home.
A week or 2 later headed out to the spit, armed with yamashita's and tried squidding despite the low tide.... Couple of casts and flicks over here and there and BANG! Was on to another one! This one was a monster! Didn't really check the hood length but it was big!
While reading a lot of posts from other fellow raiders, what really motivated me was Krispy's After Uni Kingy
Got me soo hyped up i had to go chase some squid and but it out live! But Bugger nothing!Headed out to Cliffton garden in the morning, gates were still closed, did an all nighter but the rangers still didnt turn up!!!! Then this guy comes in and just opens the gate like he knew it was open, so we followed him in, but then it came to my attention that this bastard was there the week before and was hogging the top corner of the wharf, so i reckon this guy knew it was open even if it looked like it was LOCKED!!
So frustrated!!!!
Anyone i hope he gets whats coming for him...Went to buy some new yamashita jigs, and natural colour seemed to work really well.. Went to cliffton again last night and caught one of the biggest squid i ever caught!
Took drag and was pushing hard! Didnt measure again but was preatty sure it was BIG! Quickly zip locked them!
I was dying to write a report just didnt have anything to show you guys!
So now i do and this is it!
Thanks guys and tight lines!
P.S last 2 photos is the big one!!!
P.P.S thanks guys to other raiders for the motivation!
-
Great catch!
i would love to catch a few bonnies!
where abouts were you land based?
-
Nice report paul!!!
Pity you didnt have a camera with you, would of been some mad shots!
Cant believe the wharf was packed on a weekday
geezzz
Great fish anyway though!

Hi Sam,
So you are a Fishraider, I was going to ask if anyone is a Fishraider that Sunday morning. I was there, I was watching you reeling in that kingy, I really thought that is already gone because he is already on it's side but unfortunately the line touches the pylon, it's easily on 80's cm mark, but anyway you got the samson fish, congrats on that. Those small squids that your friend catching really work a treat.
I didn't have much luck myself but enjoyed the morning, I was the skinny guy with the mo you're talking to
in the early morning, hope to see again there sometime.
Cheers,
Littledinghy
Hi there hehe i remember you on the other side and u hooked up a mad slimey and i think you or your friend hooked the annoying bird lol
the guy that caught the squid is just another fisho but yeh he hooked some killer bait
-
Action of kingys died down, because there was a boiling frenzy near the moared boats, couldnt even spot the kings...
But action was good, people caught alot of fish, including snapper, bream, and a nice flatty
-
Damn,, i soo wanted to know when they are fully goneskies!!!
um not to sure about the blotches

Wow nice fish,

But there are alot of frenzies early morning
top fish

Hello Everyone, first time posting about a decent fish that was actually caught!!!
Previous attempts at balmoral was a disaster, catching a kingy to see that it wasnt hooked properly and after they surface they spit the bait out.... Boy do i have alot to learn... Any hoo
Arrived at Balmoral Wharf around 2am on the saturday night.
Fished for Squid and Yakka's however only managed to catch 2 squid. However plenty of yakka's but they were way to big.
Fished until morning came, me and my mates were all exhausted, until we started to spot the kingys
By then there was alot of people on the wharf, and people where throwing their lines over me. Was a bit fed up.. So i took the sinker out, and placed a squid head where i saw the kingy last.
The moment i dropped the bait and was adjusted the drag, i can see the kingy tailing the squid, then turning around and BAM!
, i was very lucky that he swam towards the open water, Boy do they pull hard!!!. Was thinking to myself "i Poped my kingy virginity" i was trying to be very calm, and everyone reeled in their lines Thanks! expect for one guy which my line got nearly tangled with. I do recall now that paulthetaffy said "No ones got a net??"hehe now i know its you. Back to the story i reeled the kingy towards the wharf suprised that the kingy was exhausted because it was on its side. Called my friend to go down to the wharf and grab the line, but before he could grab it, the kingy just dived under the wharf then PING! So fustrated i nearly had him!!!!
Rebaited and casted out again this time with a sinker and a very good nice live yakka.
After 30minutes my line goes off again!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Very strong runs at first, i thought it was another kingy this time i wasnt going to loose it! peeled line off like no tomorrow!! after around 4-5 bursts i gained power over him, he was coming from a distance, YES yellow tails!! and the Yellow stripe!!! WOOOT got him, only to see that it wasnt a Kingy once it came closer
but happens to be a nice fat fish. i cant put a name on it because there was some arguements saying samson or amberjack measured to be around 50cm
I question to all the professional king fishermens!! How can you tell if the kingy is exhausted?? And that it would not take anymore runs??
I hope people fishing on boat near balmoral had some luck as there was a pack of sambo's or kingy's going crazy near the moared boats.
Cheers Sam

Hi guys just a report of my fishing experience yesterday night.
Arrived at Balmoral wharf around 8:00pm, starting chasing yakka's and squid.
Managed to attach a livie on the big rod, and started to bait fish consistently. Around 40minutes pass, and friends calls me to say my rod with the livie jumped in the air to 1metre and hopped back down....
To my surprise i didnt adjust the drag... bummer!
Attach new livie and wait again, bait fishing!
Finally hear that beautiful sound ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ raced to my big rod waited waited waited and striked, but spat the hook again!!
UGHHHHHHHH
Last time i thought to my self, baited new yakka and off again!
after 10minutes i hear it again ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ this time i was not going to let it run away, hooked it correctly, put up a good fight, but i only felt minor head shakes, was thinking to my self if it was a big flattie!.
Saw the Fish come up, to my surprise, i thought it was a 8ft flattie!!!, but until it i got a closer look found out it was a port jackson!
around 4 ft and around 25kg+, took it out, found that this fella had busted alot of people , there was so many hooks inside his mouth.
Took it all out of his mouth, one quick photo and back in the water.
Hope i can get a REAL fish next time
cheers
