BOBCO67 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hi Raiders, Well it started out like any other fishing day, load the boat, fuel up and we're away. Browndog was on the water again with a trusty crew, of course myself and good old mate Norm. After getting on the water at a reasonable hour, straight to get some livies that proved a bit more challenging than normal due to something shadowy. Bit to much wind to head right out so hit the inshore marks Norm was straight onto a nice kingy on the first drift so back for the second drift and Normy was on again with another nice kingy the biggest at 1.28m. Drift number 3 was my turn and after a solid hook up and only 1 back breaking minute later the dissapointment of winding in slack line Cookie 0 kingys 1 Went off the bite but still picked up a few reefies to end the day with a nice feed and a great day with a couple of good mates. Here's browndog2 and Norm with the kingys. Am trying to get video on next trip Tight lines and good fishin........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dobson_c Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Awesome kings, great work. Off which area are you fishing? I guess I'm just wondering if this was off Sydney or not. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodch0p Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 (edited) From the look of the coastline in the pics I don't think its off Sydney, and burringbar is up past Byron so probably fishing off North coast or there abouts. Very nice fish, not the fattest but some of the longest I've see in a fair while. Edited May 18, 2011 by woodch0p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagga Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I can see Mt Warning in the first pic, it's south of them so they're probably out from the Tweed River bar, I'd say near Cook Island. Are we getting warm guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

browndog2 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I can see Mt Warning in the first pic, it's south of them so they're probably out from the Tweed River bar, I'd say near Cook Island. Are we getting warm guys? G,day Raiders. Yeah, your very warm. The spot is only 5 mins from Tweed bar, in the middle of nowhere andabout the size bathroom, hard to find.Hope to get Slinky out there saturday, fingers crossed. Once you pull a couple of fish off there they move on. Hopefully Cookie will get some video cheers greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobson_c Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Once again, superb fish. I've been looking at the posts on my iPhone so it's hard to make out the detail. Bummer they weren't off Sydney as I've been looking for some end of Harbour season inspiration! Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewhunter Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 thanks heaps mate still learnin how to do things slowly.....cheers Yes , well you guys are a bit slow up here Bob! Cracker Kings guys. I had my share last night & it was sensational! The weather looks crap for the w/end but it's time I took a day off next week to get into some. It's always nice cracking some good fish with Mount Warning in the background. ( p.s. Greg told me the biggest King went 1.29cms, the small one at 1.25cms.! Heaviest fish weighed in at just under 20kgs!) Top Hoodies fellas! Cheers, Grant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
