Well done, I am jealous! Soon you will be upgrading gear for kings!

Hey guys, I went Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon for nothing! I was fishing with fresh squid that I caught the day under a float and also spinning some stickbaits and poppers. Although a guy bottom bashing with fresh squid hooked onto a small school shark. Both days were around the western side of South Head. On Sunday afternoon, I came back home after fishing to find out big hail poured down while I was fishing. Thank fishing I avoided this Going back today after work to spin again. Would be 3 days in a row

Hey guys, Swell has been pretty bad so I am going to spin inside the harbour or around middle head this weekend (haven't fished weeks due to swell ) I'm wondering what your opinions are in throwing out stickbaits and poppers mostly 40~60grams. Are they too big inside the heads? Not really experienced spinning in calm water so any tips and advice would be appreciated! Chasing pelagics hoping for bigger kings Thanks!

I fish landbased and haven't seen much surface action for me to try out smaller lures. I'll give it a try anyways thanks for the advice!

Great job on landing the king! How big did it measure? I understand that kings travel but just feels like there are lot less of them around this season. I did 10+ all nighters catching squid and yakkas to result in just 1 salmon Hopefully it gets better!

I fish every summer and land some decent kings off the rock ledges around North Head (unfortunately one of the spots have been fenced off) But this year I am yet to even hook one. Been using livies, mostly squid and throwing poppers and stickbaits at sunrise AND sunset (skipping work). Also tried inside the Harbour around Manly with no takes. Only 1 salmon caught from the last 10 sessions! Will I see some action soon? Going tomorrow arvo again to spin. T_T

a general term to describe rock fishing

Just wondering what you could potentially get other than sharks live baiting a bonnie/mak tuna on a balloon off rocks in sydney? Saw a guy do it today, he was using really heavy gear on his stella 10000. I asked him but he was just anticipating anything massive but didnt have a general idea. He was spinning for bonnies and were using them as live bait. We were using yakkas and we looked very noob/beginner compared to him haha Thanks

why does sunscreen put off the fish? can someone explain pls? thanks

still looking for anyone that can take us on a boat. been fishing everyday from little manly to chowder bay with no luck

Hi guys, me and my best mate are on uni holidays now and have been fishing literally every day trying to get some kingfish action landbased with no luck but salmons despite our efforts of waking up at 3am every time T_T. We have our own gear and tackle and if anyone wants some company we will share the cost, fuel, cleaning up, etc. We been fishing for very long time so quite experienced so we wont be a burden! We have a car for transport and are very very keen fishers so please let us know thanks!

Hey guys I've been fishing out in the morning from about 5am in the harbour landbased and whenever I use my metal lures they just seem to chase it but just dont bite it. I would really like to catch one of these using lures and I've also been using soft plastics and various metal lures 30~50g. It was exciting see them chase my lure but now its just really teasing. Any help/tips will be appreciated thanks

Planning to go fishing during break from uni and we normally go landbased around harbour and sometimes the narrabeen lakes. Can we expect legal size snappers in the harbor?

I bought a new reel and its spool specs are 18bs - 215yds | 0.45mm - 195m. I am wondering which line to put on and it would be helpful if anyone can recommend me some decent and cheap line. I will be targetting smaller kings, tailors, salmons, etc. Thanks~

Hi guys I read alot posts here but never actually posted anything. I just arrived from narrabeen lakes and was fishing with fresh squid that I caught yesterday. Not much action until when we were gonna pack to leave my line went crazy ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. It screeched very loud, I ran to my rod and hooked it. I tried to fight the fish but couldnt bring it in as I was using like 8lb line it wouldve snapped if I tried to bring it in. Eventually my line snapped and now I am really really curious as to what fish that couldve been?? I was there targetting flatheads but it was way toooo strong to be one. I fished near middle creek reserve and I am pretty sure jews dont come up here. The fish fought for a minute then stopped for awhile then fought back then stopped and so fourth it kept repeting that. This was my first time encountering such a massive fish, though I lost it, hell it was funnnnn
