Hi All,

Myself and a couple of friends are going fishing tomorrow in middle harbour. We are looking for kingfish - particularly around the wrecks, although all of our previous attempts have been failures - ending up with baby snapper and flathead. Are there any good baits we should be using - live yakkas, squid etc..?

Any help appreciated

If you’re catching baby Snapper and Flathead, then you are not even in the ballpark for Kingfish,  best guess you’re just drifting around fishing the bottom?

We usually have multiple rods in - a few at the bottom for little fish to keep us interested and then a few around mid water with 5/0 circle hooks and squid as bait.
