Bentstik Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Know of one boat that went 4 3 1 on Sat out the front of JB and then went 4 3 2 on Sunday all before 10am on both days. Cheers Silvo - Bentstik
lennon_2101 Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Any reports of kings out the banks or just the marlin? Looking to head down on thursday/friday and hoping to get onto a few nice kings if nothing else!
Steve07 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Some boys at the tackle shop fishing the port stephens comp where saying JB was on fire,pity it wasnt the same up at the interclub.Hope the weather comes good for this weekend.
outfishes Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 apparently there are some good kings hanging around at the banks at the moment. A few mates were down last weekend and were getting double hookups for hours on end sunday but heaps of rats even on bigger baits. the water's warm and theres heaps of bait around out there so good chance of bigger kings or even a marlin. they hooked up to one out there but a boat ran over the line and busted em off. good luck.
dinnerbell Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Any reports of kings out the banks or just the marlin? Looking to head down on thursday/friday and hoping to get onto a few nice kings if nothing else! Gday Lennon. I went out two weeks ago and after hooking sharks and marlin we had a lot of rats 60cm eating 40cm livies. We also pulled a few in the 80cm range but the sounder was showing a few bigger ones about. Good luck. Adam.
lennon_2101 Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Thanks for your updates boys but unfortunately we ran into some serious boat issues (my mate managed to rip the roof off his new barcrusher and take the windscreen and steering with it) and didn't even get to hit the water! Everyone says things come in 3's. First trip to the banks didn't get out because of the weather, second trip got struck down by some major food poisoning and didn't end up getting out and now this! lets hope trip number 4 is more successful! haha
