mike2153 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Haven't been out in a few weeks as I've been away on holidays. Very keen to get back out there decided sunday was the pick this weekend. Launched from tunks about 6 headed to the fridges and filled the tank with slimies and yakkas. Headed to a number of reefs sounding bait everywhere but not a single king. By midday I was ready to call it quits, very frustrated I thought I'd try te first spot on my way back in and have another quick look. Down goes a livie and after only a minute the rod buckles in the holder with 80lb screaming off the Stella. After a exhausting but short fight first fish in the 92cm Ended up with 4 fish, smallest 92cm biggest 98cm Getting very close to that magic metre mark! Ended up taking one home for dinner and the rest went back with tags! Awsome day out couldn't be happier with the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
