Scent Blazer Lures Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Just one long range Kingie, caught it about 35 miles out, just inside Heatons. We trolled from the 12 mile all the way to Heatons. From the shelf onwards we saw schools of Sauries chasing tiny little bait fish about every 20 mins but didn’t see anything smashing them up. Warmest water we found was 22 near Heatons and literally nothing on the sounder from the shelf onwards.It seemed pretty fishy out there but we only managed to get 2 hits all day. We dropped one fish which I am guessing was a small Dollie and got the Kingie. I don’t really follow the moon cycles but people have told me that the fish go off the bite a bit on a new moon, I think Monday was a new moon.We got the kingie on one of our Red/Black lures with squid inside and a LED light the head to brighten it up on the overcast day.http://www.scentblazer.com/Products/tabid/292/ProdID/1154/CatID/126/Red__Black_Squid__Small_Smoker_Head.aspxAnyway, can’t complain J Edited May 19, 2015 by Scent Blazer Lures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scent Blazer Lures Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) awesome work!! thats one nice kingy!!! yeah it was a nice fish, maybe 4-5kg, its the furthest out I've ever caught a Kingy. We did get a small kingy last year about 5 miles east of Browns, we didn't notice it was on and it's eyes were popping out of its head when we brought it in got a Bluefin about an hour later and we shoved the Kingy in its mouth, along with a smoke Edited May 20, 2015 by Scent Blazer Lures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for the last month they have been getting YFT in numbers around Merrimbula, we have sold a few lures down there for the tuna, so Sydney could be any day now with the colder currents moving up the coast pretty quickly now, just gotta get out there and give it a go Edited May 20, 2015 by Scent Blazer Lures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scent Blazer Lures Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 bum Today current running at 1.7-2 knots at Browns. Tuna still down Sth none today. bummer, yeah the water is still pretty warm off Sydney, 21-22 ish from the heads all the way out to heatons and beyond. Just guessing but I'd say there would be the odd big YFT tuna out there for sure, but not in numbers yet, they will probably turn-on once those colder breaks which are down near Bermagui at moment move up to Sydney. Been starting to setup my tuna lures, might not need them for while, probably got more chance of getting dollies or a marlin in the current water temps off Sydney. But who knows just gotta get out there and give it a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
