Went over to curtain on sunday morn in sloppy conditions for the first time. Plan was to berley up and see what followed while dropping some baits on the bottom. Within 45 mins(and 2 cans) we had 2 nice kingies in the trail. Over the next hour we hooked five but only landed 1. It was the first trip out in the bay in my bros galeforce so we learned a few things and it wasn't a complete waste of time. Conditions were great for the ride home. Cheers.
Nice fish keith but 2 cans in 45 mins are you slowing up?
Yeah it was a bit bumpy mate and the 30 the night before didn't help
GREAT WORK
thats some good king there
where is curtain
curtain artificial is on the inside of moreton island just north of the tangalooma wrecks. first time we have been there and wont be the last
Not a complete waste of time??... a kingie like that would have kept me smiling for a year!!Originally Posted by Creek Vermin
Good on yas!!
I'm with Adamy. To date I have not landed a kingy let alone a monster like that. Well done. Was far from a waste of time that's for sure. [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]
Poodroo
He who aims at nothing is sure to hit it.
What gear where you using to get that one in, theres a lot of structure down there that the kingies would love.
ON-THE-CHEW
Nice nice fish.
What sort of boat - Galeforce but how long etc, please?
Congrats on the fish.
nice fish Keith next time invite the cowboy he is dying to get out there mate did angry man catch anything
On the chew- was just using an okuma baitrunner with 25lb mono. the first one we hooked smashed me when i tried to lock up but let the 2nd one run a bit. As my name suggests i'm used to creek fishing for flatties and jacks and only use braid so the mono felt like absolute crap but i set the rig up for floatlining and unfortunately braid sinks
Charlie- G'day champ. My bros got a 4.8 galeforce with a 90 e-tech. Top boat and doubles up well in the river. We're planning some offshore trips and are confident it will go well.
Nice one mate. You did well to pull it out of there on that tackle. I've had a copuple of small uns on float tackle fished half depth, but whenever I've fished down they've bricked me.

Good fish mate, gotta be happy with that
Horny
Live every day as if it's your last - for one day you're sure to be right!
