    Kingfisher bay

    Hi all

    Heading to kingfisher Bay in a fortnight for a weekends relaxation. Managed to convince "the minister for war and finance" that the rods should be taken along, just in case .......Have never fished there, what would I expect to find, and what gear will I need??? Are livies readily jigged from the pier?? Any information would be appreciated.

    Cheers

    have a look under 'some pics of cod' under the sw photos section, i think most of the info is in there, if you want to know more, send me a pm. but definately take as much heavier gear as u can.

        mate if you have a tss4 or similar should be sufficient. you'll get trevally, cod, jew, mac tuna, school mackeral, odd jew, flathead, bream whiting. you should be able to jig livies, the best spot i have found is where the barge lands they see to school up the most there. this is truly the best jetty to fish on i like it more than the pier at hervey bay.
        definately take the gear, i have spun up a few school mackeral on slugs

          everything can be caught off that jetty, take plenty of slugs stacks of GT's. we got most of our GT's casting either end of the wave break and cranking the lure back in. had some hit it right at your feet. early morning and later arvo are the best times we found. Also some snodger tailor aswell.

                With that dead whale up past Coongul creek every fish in the straights will be heading past there so you could catch anything
