Did you get that one jigging or on bait? Looks like it would have given you a bit of a hard time, nice fish!

Live bait mate....this was the biggest king of the session. Picked up about 20 in total, quite a few on jigs...15kg tackle...great fun. We were using tiny circle hooks..worked really well, with no gut hooked fish at all.
