Lure'em Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Hey guys, This is a pic of my 1.2m 13kg king that I caught whilst fishing for snapper on holidays at Forster. The king was hooked on a 6" nuclear chicken gulp grub and took around 40 minutes to land on a 4-6kg rod and 20lb braid. Cheers, Jack

jay83091 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 40 minutes!!! I bet you got sore back and arm after that eh? Nice one!!!
Lure'em Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 thanks guys stippy- the kingy was hooked close to latitude rock in very close to the rockwall where a lot of slimeys were holding hahaha yep at first we thought it was a small shark and i was only using 20lb flurocarbon so we were trying to take it easy but this is much better than a shark ANY DAY
arpie Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Woohoo!!! Top Kingie!!! Well done Jack!! I'd heard a rumour of kingies somewhere near there (also good jews near the Tanks, too!) Terrific result on light gear!! Roberta
