Nice kings!!! :thumbup::yahoo: Is that a big bream on the right?

Flattieman.

Hello Flattieman,

Thats the tarwine i mentioned the other day when i was trying to attach the pics.

The pavers are 30cm long so u can estimate how big and fat the kings were

Did you drift and jig or anchor up?

Did you need to berley the kings in ?

Drift using jigs.

no burley as the fish were 80-100m deep.

Top catch R_Zee.

Jigging in 100m can be very hard work but the

rewards can be great as you have shown.

What did you get the tarwhine and snapper on?

Ahh... That's a big tarwhine. I can only seem to catch the little 19-19.5cm blighters that devour anything in sight. Sooo annoying!

Bloody deep .... what type of gear you into ( rod/reel )- must have a strong wrist ....... "RESPECT"!....

Okuma 90 with 80lb braid as they're ugly fighters so you need to hold them up.

it is abit of a work out even for the fit

Mate, which model Okuma reel were you using? It's gotta be pretty tough to handle 80lb braid. Have you been jigging with it long and how's it holding up?

cheers

I think it fits about 200m of it which is plenty i think.

I dont play with these bastards they fight dirty.

Just for the record i use the smallest version daiwa millionnaire with 6lb braid when fishing for salmon and kings in the harbour but i have lost almost every fish that took line close to the bottom, they know exactly where to go!

Sure thing.

You get plenty of kings in winter in the deeper water.
