Re: Landbased Kingies

Nice rod and reel you got there. I never caught kingfish, so I got no much experience. But I heard people are catching kings in summer off the rocks in wilson prom. Not sure about the Otways. The guy at Compleat Angler told me a while ago (when I tried to get a kingie), sluggos plastic is good when ...

Re: Landbased Kingies

I am certainly no expert but I've caught a few, I'd go the bait route honestly. If you can balloon out a squid you're probably in with a much better shot than lures. Only one I caught on a lure was a micro kingy I got on a Tsunami Slimwave that I was jigging with at the prom. It's a low tide spot on...

Re: Landbased Kingies

I'd be ballooning out a squid as well for a better chance of landing one.

As for lures.
GT ICE CREAM
BUSTED SLUGS
NOMAD MADSCAD
NOMAD RIPTIDE
RAPALA STICKBAITS

Pretty much ones that are similar will also work I'd think.

Re: Rock life

Here's an example of how i'm rigging up for ledge kings using a squid strip bait. Gear is dependent on which ledge and conditions i'm fishing. Anyfish Anywhere 6 and bait rod. This thing is an absolute beast to cast and packs unbelievable power through the middle third. The tip is soft enough to sho...

Stkilda pier report

Starting to get some consistent results at Stkilda pier, here's the results from a short soft plastics session around 6:00 this morning DSC_8103 (1).jpg Snapper was 52cm, pike was 74cm and flathead was 41cm, all were caught on a 4 inch Zman minnow. Using bigger plastics seems to be a good strategy f...

Re: New to fishing...have a question?

I love the Sienas more than the Sedonas. All my Sedonas tend to have problems with the roller on the bail arm and they tend to feel rough spinning in the rain probably due to water seeping into the mechanisms. Great when new but they don't last as well as the Sienas. Also Sienas are so cheap you cou...

Re: Beginner Egi Rod

I used to have that Rovex 8'6 rod. It's good for the price. 2500 reel with 10 lb line should be okay. I am now using Majorcraft Solpara, bought it around $115 I think. Very happy with it. I wrote a quick review about it in this forum, just search it. Plenty options if you're willing to spend around ...
