dhype Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 (edited) Hey Raiders Long time since my last post - too busy fishing! The bay has been a bit on and off over the past 2 month but the last 2 weeks have been great. Been getting plenty of bonito and tailor on the surface with metal slices and the usual flatties on the sand flats with plastics However, yesterday - sunday we tried for Kings for the first time with larger plastics and did rather well! I was using Bozo stickbaits and my mates used the smelly 5in crazy legs GULPS... both worked a treat! We caught heaps of tailor but did not take any photos of them... We had a ball catching the kings on light gear and managed 7 hookups in less than an hour, landing 5 of them.... they measured between 55 to 62cm. All fish went back in after a quick photo. Not too bad for our first plastic attemp on the knigs! We then went a chased down a school of tailor and bonito that were smashing up the surface for most of the morning... great fun! Will be out again next week to chase them again - see you all on the water! Cheer Trung / DHYPE Edited December 20, 2010 by dhype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS: My bad about dropping the metal slug Santa popped by Fish outta water and picked up a few more goodies.. yeah - it was great to get those kings on the new carrot stix... just need to find some larger units to put a bigger bend on the rod! That metal slice you dropped over board was probably picked up a tailor on its way down.. there was that many around! So santa dropped by the tackle shop hey ? There better be a few Stella reels and loomis rods in his santa sack when he pops over! Catch up with you over the weekend. DHYPE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
