rodd33 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 hey all, got up again the smorning 2 more wind but i was keen as, after mymate got a that kingy yesterday, so we headed over 2 mol pt again and found the kingys on the surface again, 2nd cast with a halco popper [gold with the dark back and red eyes] YEA HAA finally on 2 my first king,now i know what all the fuss is all about, damn it went hard on my 14 pound gear,zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz awsome fun, got it in the boat measured 57cm, can only imagine what a big 1 would go like ,like a bat out a hell, im sure, chased them 4 a couple more hours but no more takers, tried a few different poppers and other lures 4 no luck, oh well, just getting 1 was worth getting out there in the wind, fish was put back of course, if only it was 8cm longer, lol thats 3 trips in a row ive found them on the surface, chrissy day they were following the bonito up 2 the back of the boat, these ones were legal, threw some livies at them, but they were 2 smart, may have 2 go out again in the morning im on a kingy high now....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhype Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Good work on your first Botany Bay King and i'm certain it will just be the first of many to come! There seems to be plenty of rats out there atm... they are taking everything from peeled prawns to large sluggo stickbaits. I have caught plenty on the bozo lures in the past 2 to 3 weeks and kinda have an addiction myself! Need to get a kingy fix shortly! See you all on the water Cheers Trung Edited January 3, 2011 by dhype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
