A work trip down to Sydney lined up with some good weather, allowing us to get out on a charter to chase some kings.
The morning started out chasing some live-bait in the form of first squid, then yakka's and slimy's. Once we got plenty of live-bait in close, the skipper pushed out to the reef we were fishing and dropped some baits.
Early on it was a little rough and the bite was slow but we were managing one hook-up every drift. The yakka's were getting all the attention and all the fish were taking them, not a jig or slimy.
After a while the bit picked up and with some adjustments to the jigging technique, we started getting fish after fish. 4 way hook-ups were starting to happen and I got three kings in 3 drops on a 180grm jig.
Finally the bite slowed, a seal turned up and we had to get to the airport for fights. Seen a couple whales on the trip in with the beautiful backdrop od Sydney harbour.
