Very amateur Kingi vids

The old man took me and my sister and the grandkids out today to see if we could get them to catch some pannies.
Not much luck on the brim (In shallow) so had a look around,I have never seen so much bait fish and kings on the sounder!:cool:

Id get us over a massive king mark and fish for a bit till it moved or we drifted off it then find it again and so on.
They were hungry and easy to catch:cool: Unfortunately all seemed to be just under 700, steam off and find another mark catch 3 or 4(and release) hoping for something bigger.steam off find another mark etc etc.

The wife got me a water proof camera for my birthday a couple of weeks ago as I stuffed our semi good one hunting in the rain, still learning to work it, it has no zoom so might put it on a pole to get it down further.

Click pics for vid (I hope)

Yea would have liked to stay on the kings a bit longer but a couple hours on boat is enough for the kids at this stage.

I used to fish out the back of Waiheke Island with my grand father, father and two brothers in a ten foot dinghy pushed by a 5hp Seagull. They were great times.

Well could be arranged if you can sneak away from home although with the view from work this morning you would be glad you aren't there now,

Sometime my crew lets me down as she likes to sleep in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No worries , But you will need to bring your own beer I quit drinking a few years ago , i have some good gear you are welcome to use if you want to to come out.
Either over the summer or to Stephens in the winter if you are really keen. Taking another guy out on 13th so might not be till after then as working till at least the 10th
my best King is only 20Kgs but we got my mate his first last year along the BB and was 26kg. Was a bloody cracker
and with a bit of luck the Albies will be back in the bay soon too

I would love to get amongst them with the speargun
I should point out I'm talking kingies in general not this particular school before someone accuses me of wanting to shoot undersized fish pol.

Re: Very amateur Kingi vids

They are still there but the Buggers were not biting today. Tried trolling with poppers middle and deep lures.
Tried jigging over the marks.
Tried two kawhia live baits not one touch on anything.
This fresh water in the bay may have put them off or just one of those days.

Dirty water puts em off. You should be trolling at around 7 knots
