Hacking - Jibbon and South

Recommended Posts

Hello All,

managed to get out for a run in the boat this morning after finally

completing some major reno's. Couldn't be sure how the conditions

would be but the wind seemed pretty light around five.

The sea was up a bit and there was some swell but nothing too bad

and with my first hit just outside Jibbon headland the fishy look

was confirmed.

I fished 15lb on my TLD5 as most of your recent reports mentioned

smaller fish, so after a few runs in came an amberjack around 50cm.

Not a bad start after only a few minutes and a first for me of this

species.

A few small bonito on the way to where I usually target kings got my

feel back in for the boat and the fish.

Down at the headland north of Marley was a three squid, three passes

and three kings affair. All downrigged on double hook rigs.

The old TLD5 got a good going over and what with one king going 70cm

the fights and boat driving really smartened me up.

Anyway, back on the trailer and home by 8:30am was a quick and

productive session with dinner accounted for.

well done, looks like kings are everywhere but the harbour.

Mate the Kings are everywhere through the harbour as well. I was out yesterday and today briefly and there were Kings smashing the surface at a couple of spots. Also some better fish holding down deep...
