an addiction maybe but another species ticked off

 well it's apparent i might have an addiction ahahha sunday another charter with a mixture of sambo jigging and bottom bashing.

we tried a mixture of spots and spirits were high after the showing on the sounder of the first spot resulting in a few sambos and ambers

a good start and out to the 80's with nearlly everyone hooking up to amber took a few for a feed (no time to take photos hahaha)

in the 100's the sharks are still there but we jigged up a few sambos and tom got sharked  but reeled to the top with a head a shark chased it and whacked another sambo a bloke from sydney had on the top waiting to  get netted was awesome to see

i was feeling bad for losing numerous jigs so i switched to bait and on the way down something hit my whole squid felt like a big sambo by the way it was fighting. took off like it got sharked later to find out a shark had taken my sinker? anyway when it hit the surface i was stoked to see my first yellow tail kingfish splashing around 

meanwhile tom and the blokes from sydney were jigging striped tuna up from 100 meters

to show the brut strength of sharks we took a photo and toms swivel after the shark took the sambo he had on first time i've seen this like straightened it?

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

Good stuff Scott!I betcha

Good stuff Scott!

I betcha Kingy of that size pulls a hell lot better than a bigger sambo. And kingy fights all the way to the top. Unlike sambo which goes limp after a few runs and need a bit of rest to catch some breadth.

 

Looks like the stripey are out. Jamie caught one off JB trollng last weekend too.

Barbeque the larger ones in

Barbeque the larger ones in cutlets or fillets. Don't normally like sashimi but I found that kingies taste nice with a bit of soy sauce and wasabi.
