Headed out early on Saturday for a jigging session off Two Rocks to some ground i hadn't been to for months.

I took three mates out to give them a day out on the water and hopefully find some fish. Most have not been fishing for years.

Got out to the spot to find it littered with cray pots which made it very hard to set a good drift. While setting some of the boys up with bait rigs one of the boys (Jeff) dropped down a jig which resulted in a nice hookup.

First drift and a 58cm pinkie. Nice start.

After that I got smoked on jigs a couple of times by something that was massive. I had my Catalina locked and it taking line like no tomorrow. The boys hooked up with probably 10+ Skippy with one being a stonker!!

Then Brett landed a nice sized Yellowtail Kingy. Not bad for his first fish of the day.

Then i hooked up on something that went really hard for its size. Not sure what it is exactly but has to be from the trevally family i am guessing. Weighed in at 4kg. ID would be great???

The call was made to head out wider to try for some dhuies but with no luck. A nice baldie and black bum were landed but thats it.

Someone upstairs wispered to me to go back to our original spot and give it another go. So off we went. Turned out to be a great decision. With the wind dying right down and it glassing off we decided to drop anchor and chum up with cubed mulies. Within 15 minutes there was 10-15 kingies coming up the burley trail. I threw jigs and plastics at them for 10 minutes with no luck so i decided to "match the hatch" and just put on a unweighted hook and mulie cube. it didnt last 10 seconds. Very cool watching your bait get slammed by a 7kg kingy.

By this stage everyone else was re-rigging their setups to single circle hooks and a mulie cube.  Jeff was next on the fish with a 6kg kingy. At this stage we also had two whales circling the boat and continued to for over an hour.

We landed four in total which was more than enough fish but lost some unstopable fish which were in the 15-20kg range. They were that close to the boat you could see how broad their shoulders were. Big powerful fish. last cast was called and Brett decided to throw out a whole mulie in hope for a larger fish and within 30 seconds wham. 10 minutes later and this miracle appeared at the surface. Typical you lend you rod to someone who doenst own a rod and he catches a metro mackie!!! 9kg and tasted beautiful on the BBQ Sat night.

With plenty of fish in the esky and glassy conditions still present we decided to head for home.  Always nice to finish the day with a smooth and quick ride home. Spent the next 2 hours filleting fish. Thanks for reading.
