hornets Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 thanks for the heads up . I was feeling crap because I didnt make the effort to get out there after the rain as the lawns couldnt wait . That makes me feel better for not wasting the fuel getting out . Thanks heaps . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangas Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 LOL ... i think you may have a record there for the smallest kingfish ever posted on Fishraider. Better luck next time mate. Was out there at the fAD too on the weekend and didnt look like anyone was catching anything decent. Might try throwing around some micro jigs on 4lb line there at the FAD next time for some fun with the micro kings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keflapod Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Hey Trung, If you go out there the following weekend, that dolly would have grown to about 20kg ! They grow super fast - maybe we should make steroids from them ! Well OK, not 20kg but it's a good sign for next year's run if there are that many small ones there. If you put a soft plastic and a squid-jig on a paternoster and drop it to the bottom, you would probabkly catch a squid and a flathead. You could catch them in a bath-tub, I bet...

Tony Hey Tony - I did read they do grow really fast.. hopefully the will be the same size of this "slightly" bigger example we got at another FAD a few weeks earlier.. 16KG! Might give it a few more weeks before we head out again.... still learning how to fish the FADs and the PEAK, have not had that much success out there (YET!).
