Mercer007 Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Raiders, After reading a few of Cungee George's reports, I am interested to find out what other raiders have caught on a squid jig. As for myself I have only managed squid, but on one occasion as I had the squid to the surface about 15 meters from the rocks and I think it was a large kingy smashed me and took the squid and jig from me. Tell us your story... Cheers 007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piss'n'Broke Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 "I" have not done it but seen a mate nail a kingy on a squid jig when the regulations were 60cm was a legal king. But have caught flathead on squid jigs, occies, and other assorted things eels, etc. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I've found a new method for kingfish jigging. It was more fun than pulling in those lazy squid. pongrass18ft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukedfluke Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 caught jews kings reds and lost a lot of jigs to wiz bangers , this king went 72 cm on 6lbs ,the jig got stuck in its gills Uploaded with ImageShack.us wow that's a great effort on light gear, especially to stay connected the whole time.. i remember one night on the boat at the spit bridge, me and my dad helped this solo angler land an 85cm beaut flatty, i've had some fish strikes and short fights on a jig but never landed a fish on one myself. Probably the weirdest thing i've caught on one was a stinky dirty jumper from the bottom of clifton gardens hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
