steze Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Can i ask after you cast your lure. Did you wait for it to sink before you started retrieving or did you retrieve straight away. Im very amazed that the kingie was caught on a raider because I've been trying for a while now and still not successful. Was your technique specific or was it just normal spinning for bonito/salmon etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
