rjc123 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hey raiders, i'm currently landbased but plan to start fishing for kings from a boat. I just have a few questions. 1. When landbased livebaiting for kings i fish the yakka under a float. Do i need to do the same from a boat? If not, what other rig? 2. If its not the crack of dawn, say, 9am, where am i most likely to find them (eg: depth, location, etc...)? Thankss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prawn* Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 hay mate downrigging from a boat is popular and also poor mans downrigger works well u can anchor on a school and flick plastics live bait float ect all works i do all i do have more success downrigging, depends on the area u are fishing.. time of the day does matter if its a weeknd i find crack of dawn is best before the crowd boats scare them. Through the week i usualy get them in afternoon anytime because there is less boat traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tentonner Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 It's always a good idea to vary the depths of your baits, definitely put one on a running sinker at about midwater and up, I find putting prize baits like fresh squid down near the bottom results in pickers having a field day.
