Pickles Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) Been a bit bored with the veggie patch so hit the harbour 5 days in a row - Kingies over 70cm each time and 2 over 80. Sunday, only on live Yakkas (ignored live and stripped squid), also took slimy mackerel and Bonito strips. Monday, one on squid strips, none on live squid and 2 on yakkas Tuesday, only on squid Wednesday squid again Thursday - cuttlefish only - ignored fresh squid and Yakkas. CONCLUSION = Cuttlefish is No 1 bait on Thursdays, Yakkas on a Sunday, Yakkas and squid on.a Monday, Squid on a Tuesday.

Nyxy Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 That cuttlefish looks evil, can't get over the colour of its eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Good eating the old Cuttlefish, way better than Squid, pretty messy cleaning them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blaxland Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Excellent report guess Kingfish like us like a varied diet. Never know what the @#$%s will eat. Got one at southhead the other day on a 10gm Halco wasjust casting to get the braid wet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizza Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Another question,does the bite depend on the tide and time of day?The afternoons have been balmy. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickles Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 Wazza, bite time for Kingies doesn’t seem to be “state of the tide” related in my experience, but there is a definite “on / off” time for them that varies from spot to spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
