wannabefisho Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I was invited to go fishing for Kingies today so I arrived to the ramp earlier than expected and started pacing the carpark waiting for my ride to arrive. Charlie dropped our mate Johnny off @ a nearby wharf and out we set to chase some candy to tempt the bigger boys out to play. As luck was clearly not on our side we baoted 3 inkers in just under 2 hours- some of the charter lads were doing it hard aswell. After sounding out one of the markers we decided to drop the rigger down and have a pass- lots of bites then WHAMMO! Onto a fish straight away, and on 24kg gear it was in the live well in a flash still very green lol Measuered 70cm and I was stoked Another pass saw the dreaded LJ's move in and squid didnt last long Hmmm... decision... 1 bait... We tried to catch some more inkers but after 30mins we still had only 1 in the tank- so off the next marker while flicking metals @ the passing bait balls and frnzied Bonito and Taylor We had a few hookups but nothing boated.. Finally arrived @ the final spot to drop squid and well it got hit straight away, but the hooks didnt set... then it come back for a 2nd run and it got busted off before we even had the rod out of the holder... sh1t happens So we continue to chase the bonito and taylor schools around for the next hour- we boated 7 nice choppers to 40cm and a single bonito- they were pretty flighty and hard to keep track of once they went back down, but we found a good patch of fish and they didnt get too spooked and was a large school Fantastic way to finish the session just after lunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
