Great fish from the rocks! Kings can be a life time addiction!

I remember seeing a shoal of about eight kingfish at the Poor Knights Islands when diving there . Big powerful fish.

I would say "kia ora and welcome to NZ" but you've already gone, I assume. Great persistence, and you got the reward you deserved. Fishing lures only off the rocks for kingies with no berley is a tough gig, and can be demoralising when you cast for hours without any result. Landing a good fish solo is a huge achievement, as so many things can go wrong. I take my hat off to you.

Thanks a lot! Yes it was very tough this trip but really enjoyed the amazing scenery and lovely country! Good people!

Happy for you and great sessions,It would have been a good idea for you to reach out to the lateral line, they are good in chasing kingfish

Brilliant result so pleased for you got your target capture, rewarded for your efforts.The terrain and rock access looked quite hairy at times, heart in mouth time, but captured beautifully for the screen.l love this sort of singular extreme terrain fishing, but my last couple trips lve suffered physically old age catching up sadly, Very well done again on your exploits.🎣🐟💪🏽😎👍🏻

Just found your channel i live in the far north of new zealand fish every weekend off the rocks dont use stick baits as such mosly live baits and a 10 inch zman pink soft bait for kings👍 i had a hook straighten years ago lost the kingi as well thats when it made me realise and other people who target big kings always take the hooks off and put on your own of preferred best brands and size 10ish i think👍 the top of north island land based for kings is awesome as to watched a lot of you tube shows👍 check out j.e wilds if you havnt already and also the lateral line top notch action on some episodes 😀
@lurefishingfromtheshore-gr827010 ай бұрын
cheers, yes I know what you mean about the hooks. I got them from a shop that said the VMC assist was there strongest hook. Fortunately I took other Raptor hooks as the VMC was not strong enough. I was going to go north, it was just a time factor
@musicmadantidevil368810 ай бұрын
@lurefishingfromtheshore-gr8270 yeah that's a bummer man about running out of time🙄 if you haven't look up the you tuber j.e wilds-3 day fishing and camping trip at big fish spot👍 its at top of the north island can be difficult to get it flat enough to fish being open to ruggerd west coast swells 🌊 alot of sharks are there to. Je wilds has alot of good content ,that clips just at one of the mecca land base areas in New zealand👍

Amazing fish, great reward for your hard work. How does the fight of a Kingfish compared to a Rooster please?
@lurefishingfromtheshore-gr827010 ай бұрын
Thanks , I love Roosterfish but it's a very different fight. Rooster generally stay up and make runs . The kingfish just heads for the rocks and knows how to break the line. They have more power lb for lb than any fish I have caught before. (For size)

Hello! In mediterranean we use jigs for amberjacks, how come you have not used any jigs? Thank you!
@lurefishingfromtheshore-gr82702 ай бұрын
I was mainly fishing marks not so deep and I also enjoy more fishing topwater. I have caught quite a few amber jack off the top, an amazing fight similar to the Kingfish
