REELCRAZY Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) Quick morning session of the stones before work today. Arrived just before first light. First cast of my xxxrap cast and I get bumped. Second cast and I hook up, big first run on my 30lb setup. Get her in close to the rocks where the close quarters fight has the fish trying to get to bottom. Solid kingfish, 75-80 cm. try for a wash up instead of grabbing leader which results in the fish snagging the hooks in the reef. Gone! 30 mins later hook a solid bonito nudging 60cm on the same gear, xxxrap cast in silver/black. Great fight with lots of powerful runs. Bailed by 8.00 with a rising SE swell getting hairy.
