Kingie Attack 👌

[Pickles]

I’ve been desperate to get out on kings and away from bream (been camping with my mate & he took his boat and loves bream, so been hammering bream for 2 weeks😞).

But today @Hadsand his young bloke (Jenson) got to target Kingies. We headed off early planning to get livies at West Head, then out to 40/50m mark for a feed of flatties, then troll the headlands & sound up Kingies. 
I spotted a pod of dolphins herding baitfish, so we stopped and  they immediately shot under the boat for cover so we tossed baits at them,

We filled the live bait tanks up with Yakkas and jelly bean slimies and headed out to the flathead grounds then back to trawlers reef, which was crawling with Kingies. We boated a dozen in about an hour and lost just as many (lots of rats).

the wind sprang up about 10am so headed into the middle grounds (Berrowra enters Broken Bay) and hooked & boated 3 almost legal jewies, but all under 60cm.

overall a great day on the water- we were back at Parsley Bay by 11.30 and glad we were as the car park was full with trailers - wouldn’t like to be coming in after 1.30pm

Great morning out Pickles, plenty of kings and a few jewies thrown in! Bet the change of pace from bream was welcome and the early start was the go with all the boat traffic at the moment! All the best for '22!

Great way to see out the year Bob. I was worried for a moment that you had given away the kings!

Good work there Bob, getting into the fish. As I wrote yesterday, plenty of slimies and yakkas about, and the dolphins are having fun eating them.

You can only eat so many bream. 🤣

I usually take a “hand” of 🍌 out - love bananas (got smashed up in a bike accident and they are high in magnesium and help with cramps which I get in my crook leg)

Sounds like a very productive morning. Well done.
