Yep inside. Moli point has heaps of rats during run up tide.

Yea few weeks back was catching heaps of rats on pencils. Surface lures getting smashed is awesome

Hey guys, Been some time since I've posted but thought I'll give a quick report on the bay today. Filled the bait tank with squid nice and early and dropped them down on the downrigger at my usual haunts. Tagged this king just shy of 80cm and 5 rats.

Tef1on you sure about the red lines? So from that image the end of the runway is a no go zone for fishing?
-
Yea i've only picked up rats on the northern side also

Happy New years fishos! May 2015 bring bigger fish! For those who fish the bay, how you getting on with the kingies? Nothing of any keepable size has come in. I've been fishing them hard during December and only picked up the odd rat. I remember last few years catching sizes from 80-100cm consistently during December in the bay and squid wouldnt last 5min in the water. Have you guys noticed it being very slow this season? Is it the water temp in the bay not being consistent? Whats your thoughts?

Saragosa 6000F VS Stradic FJ 6000 VS Fin Nor OF65
screech replied to lostproperty's topic in Tackle Talk
i have a saragosa 18000 for kings, jigging and live baiting! I believe a tough reel and recommend it. Had big hoolums hooked on locked drag, of course any big fish will peel line but i have a lot of confidence in it! But i can't comment on stradic as i havn't used. Just my 2 cents on the the reel! -
Great catch! Its really good to see jewies in numbers atm even if they are not the big beasts.

Brother i was wearing thermos, 2 shirts and 2jumpers..... Sooo cold. Shame about ur session. Somehow we need a portable heater for our next session.

Bit of a late report. Monday night got out with the misses armed with frozen squid on the georges and it was a great session. Didnt catch anything big but the plenty caught and missed. Landed 5 jews ranging 50-60cm. Only kept one for dinner. Night consisted of double hook ups and multiple runs going off at the same time. So proud of the misses landing her fish in the pic below. Lately been catching lots of little jews around that size. Anyone else finding lots of small ones around? Tight lines!

Omg thats awesome!! Dream catch!! Well done

Cheers lads. Where's kingy hwy?

Hit the bay on my own today and scored this 80cm king after multiple rats being landed. Caught on live squid downrigging. Bay has been good lately!! Bring on winter kings in the bay!
-
Very much the usual for the bay this time of the year until winter. Name is prob wrong but the cliff where the light house is and that army look out thing... Just inside the bay
-
Always live

I wish it was a stella. Its 18000 saragosa. yea in the deep water close to that north head land cliff, shakey rock is it called
-
Oppss didnt attach
-
With yeaterdays weather you would be mad to not have gone out!! Hit the bay nice and early. Bait tank more than full leaving the squid bitting and off to the pick up kings. First drop and scored this going 90cm. The old man hooked onto another at 80cm and then a few bust offs Tide started to rise so moved to moli point and picked up another 80cm which went back into the drink! Tight lines guys!!

anywhere u can find kelp along the rocks is where u will find squid

For big kings - dont trust Shimano baitrunner "d" series
screech replied to the producer's topic in Fishing Reports
You shouldnt be using a baitrunner for big kings... compare the max drag on the baitrunner to a saragosa. Plus how are you bringing the fish in? Sounds like your not using the power of the rod and too much pressure on the reel. Lift the rod then on the slack whind in line... i wouldnt be trying to whind whilst the fish is talking line or on heavy load. -
Was out on sunday.... big bust off and a rat.... too many boats were out. but yea the bay has been far too quiet for the time if year. big ones have started to move in though
-
Great catch!! Awsome to see the young lads catching big fish! pro in the making!! im sure we'll see more of his posts in the future! True u dont need 80lb leader for kings but all depends on terrain ur fishing... we lost kings on sunday with locked up 18000 saragosa on 80lb because of the reef in the area we fish. so no matter what braid u use if they rub u on a reef ur gonskis
-
well done!! mate no suprise kings are still in the bay!!! i've caught them all year round in the bay!! have a live squid out or yakka when ever you there and im sure it will produce!!!
