May 2011 Three Kings 7 Day Trip
Hi Guys
Currently looking for 3 guys to join us for a 7 day jigging trip to the Three Kings on board Enchanter in May.
Last year we had huge success with 3 fish over 40kg and about 15 over 30kg and many more.
Being a 7 day trip we will have heaps of time, the plan will be lots of jigging for kingies and bass towards the end of the trip, a couple of half days casting stick baits and poppers around the Princes group, some light tackle for kings and trevs around the Three Kings Islands, as many sword drifts at night as the weather allows, as much squid fishing at night as you would like, we will be trolling for marlin everywhere we go and possibley do some live baiting for marlin as well if they happen to be around.
A few photos below from our trip last year so you no what you would be in for, anyone interest please PM me for more details.
Cheers Coxy

getting the bottom line final answer from a bunch of blokes that use false names and put smiley faces at the end of paragraphs is not the best place in the world to get the information you seek.

No they are Bass
No they are Bass, they fight as hard as most fish in the sea and love the jigs, we target them towards the end of the trip since they cant be released, the bigger ones in the photos are 45kg, last year a guy caught one at 76kg and his next drop 86kg I think they were on the same boat another trip, massive fish.

Friends and family
Friends and family certainly get a feed or two from over there, last year we had 20kg of fillets each and thats just from the 15 or so bass we keep between us for the week, all kings apart from one were all returned to catch this year, cant wait to hook the big boy again he might be getting closer to 45kg now.

Haha it helps to do
Haha it helps to do a couple of weeks of hand weights before you go thats for sure, I was fine last trip after doing so it certainly works a treat, once you get the fish off the bottom you can have a wee rest haha.
