Yellowtail King on the troll
Went out with till on my boat the other week to try for a few demersals on the jigs.
Despite the sounder lighting up with what looked to be big schools of snapper, they would not have a bar of the plastics or the jigs.
Then went out around Rotto and picked up this Yellowtail King on the troll. Rapala X-Rap did the damage
Got another smaller one a bit later in the piece also.
Bit of sashimi when I got home followed by a few marinated YTK steaks on the BBQ later that night, went well.
I'll let my deckie post his catch here if he wants to!

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 to hear it was a top
Good to hear it was a top table addition! I haven't had the best of luck with them and the table.
I got a few sneaky tips for next time as well ;)
