Penguin Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Hi everyone, I was out playing around on my boat today, and when I returned it back to its berth I noticed a heap of Kings in the 70-75cm range, cruising around the moored boats in Rose Bay, they were just below the surface and easy to follow from boat to boat as they were going at a very slow pace. After tying up my boat, I was about to step off on to the jetty and a lone King slowly swam under my feet, if I had been more alert I could have reached down and touched him, he was that close. One of the guys that runs his business from the marina, and is a known fishing writer for several fishing mags, and has also had his own fishing show on fox-tel last year, says to me that he catches them on sp's around this area on a regular basis. This area is definitely worth a look for any Raiders in future, and its directly opposite the boat ramp. Penguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh88 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 ps: what's a king? Nah thats ok mate. Its short for Yellowtail Kingfish, probably the most commonly targeted sportfish in Sydney Harbour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
