Krispy ! Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Decided to get a session in this morning before the storm hit with a mate on his new boat. On the water at 6 and away we went. Started off fishing the moorings for bream using unweighted prawns and the bream were on, we caught 2 thumpers one was 40 and the other 38, the biggest one smacked the prawn on the surface which was something that really got the blood pumping. We ended up with 8 bream and a legal snapper off the moorings before we decided to move on and anchor up to see if there was anything else around for the run out . We got the burley trail going and the sounder was showing some good marks which ended up being a huge school of sweep, but these werent the small ones, they were plate sized sweep. We could have easily caught 100 but they got annoying as we didnt want to keep them so we were forced to move. Anchored up at the second spot which again showed some good marks down deep. Got the trail going i had a pilly cube on one rod and a prawn on the other. About 5 minutes later my mate was hooked up to a decent sized fish which was peeling line off his little stradic 1000. He was using 4 lb so it took him quite a while to tire the fish out but eventually we netted a kingy which went bang on legal. A few minutes later my rod went off, i had 12lb on so i gave the fish abit of stick and after a good tussle up came a 71 cm king. Things slowed down after that with a few small trevally coming on the bite with 2 legals coming onboard. Packed it up after that with a good feed in check for both of us.

W4z Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 That's a top day, some nice fish. Do you mind if I ask were the kings inside or outside? I was on the flats at mainbar this morning throwing some surface lures around but the whiting weren't interested. Only had a few small ones follow. Congrats again, nice haul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaClH2OK9 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Nice work Krispy. Very impressive landing a legal king on 4lb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krispy ! Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 Nice work Krispy. Very impressive landing a legal king on 4lb My mate probably would have lost it if he wasnt quick thinking, everytime it headed for a mooring he freespooled and it swam away. He done that 3 times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydneyfisher12 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Great work mate nice kings I spent a long Saturday chasing them offshore of sydney early for nothing there were about 40 boats on one spot not catching a thing all the charters and even a tv show I think it was a mixture of the full moon and really green water from all the rain and no kings you did really well Cheers sydneyfisher12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys, its weird I usually find the kings like the murkier water after rain. Sydneyfisher12 if there are 40 boats over a certain spot the kings will shut down. Better off moving somewhere quiet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
