[@fullcircle4723]

Thats a busy wharf! Must be a hotspot for fishing. Thanks for sharing again.

[@BasicFishingNZ]

you have no idea.....

[@yinyang5241]

Awsome Lee, good on you for putting back that little Kingfish👍

[@pighunter1764]

Well it’s not as if he can keep aye! Durr

[@Takitimudaboss]

Awesome attitude as always, really enjoy your videos, top notch channel

[@BasicFishingNZ]

Much appreciated

[@Dancing_Arrow]

Another good one, keep the content coming brother.

[@BasicFishingNZ]

thank you for watching

[@greenskynz]

thanks good video. do you catch red gurnard there? seems a bit crowded there, im thinking about fishing setup for my paddle board. would plastic lures work? and what do you consider good conditions there? many thanks for any tips

[@BasicFishingNZ]

gurnards have been caught there. on public holdiays and weekends it can get uncomfortably crowded. i would say soft platic would work on ur paddle board especially if you go out further and if your jighead matches with the depth and current. as for condition, flat calm is usually better than a windy one

[@saltnfreshwaternz1974]

Awesome vid mate Lee is a fishing beast! Seemed challenging enough hooking and kingi and then u got to navigate through a forest of rods 😂

[@BasicFishingNZ]

well first challenge was to catch enough livebaits! they kept dying so easily!

[@estellelauder-shaw876]

Awsome video mate 👍 lots of stingrays and heaps of rods hahaha

[@BasicFishingNZ]

but we got a kingfish at the end lol

[@estellelauder-shaw876]

[@BasicFishingNZ]

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

How goods this, love a good wharf king! :D

[@BasicFishingNZ]

haha can b hard but worth it wen u finally land one

[@BlackMagicTackleltd]

Guess that Kingy from the other week's got ya hooked haha.

[@BasicFishingNZ]

haha lol who knows?

[@buldur8584]

With piper slidbaiting you go up through the bottom then the top lip bro

[@BasicFishingNZ]

i've tried that b4 recently but quickly switched to a sturdy livebait

[@buldur8584]

@@BasicFishingNZ I watch you all the time I live in tauranga you should come down here, alot of kingys off the wharfe I've cought 4 in the past couple weeks

[@kalebtuaeu6645]

Bloody overboard with all those rods though

[@Redd_E]

NZ is a great country

[@MaOriMaN297]

Cool man! Good stuff! I was there when yous caught that kingi, was very jealous cause nothing else ever bites there lol

[@BasicFishingNZ]

haha oh really? lol tbh it wasn't an easy day's fishing even the piper was proving to b difficult to catch!

[@MaOriMaN297]

@@BasicFishingNZ yeah very hard! That morning we hooked onto a rat kingi but my mate lost it. Was his first time fishing so didnt really know how to reel it in, by the time i showed him it had wrapped itself around the pylon lol but good stuff bro! Love your videos!

[@BasicFishingNZ]

oh really? haha one thing i learnt about kingfish is that its a bad idea to skull drag them especially around a wharf. always a good idea to let them run like hell to exhaust them but of course dont give them an excuse to play dirty too. thank you for your support

[@rocketmanure6702]

Good on ya lads

[@BasicFishingNZ]

thank you

[@JendelaIslam]

[@leonardvirtue5753]

Nice.😆

[@joelcabana1327]

mate is cast nets allowed in that wharf?

[@BasicFishingNZ]

no complaints so far plus better than a drag / set net

[@GCJetskiFishing]

Man there was so many rods on that wharf!

[@BasicFishingNZ]

oh yea...... a bloody fortress for sure!

[@fishingwithzara1911]

nice video 🤘loved it !

[@BasicFishingNZ]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@josedelossantos3105]

Great content, i hope i could fish there too, but sadly im here at southlands. Btw those are filipino people. Nice vids, keep them up! :)

[@BasicFishingNZ]

Thanks for watching!

[@Di0nz]

Is that a slider rig?? Can u make a vid for it pls thank you

[@BasicFishingNZ]

at some point will do if i get time

[@fookutube501]

Way to many rod in such a small wharf.Down here theres barely 5 or 6 people on our wharf

[@BasicFishingNZ]

yea this wharfs been quite famous

[@saltydog1269]

Imagine getting up at 4:30 to fish off the warlf

[@buldur8584]

Ahaha I do that

[@ovalefiapoko9958]

Lol me too early bird gets the worm

[@squirrely1548]

I would have left, way to many ppl

[@BasicFishingNZ]

problem was we arrived at 4.30am! XD

[@Di0nz]

What sized hook did u use for the king?

[@BasicFishingNZ]

I believe it was a 5/0 hook or a 4/0

[@mattharrison9550]

I cant believe it's even getting worse out there. No one even has the respect to a fellow fisherman to pull their lines out of the way. Not the nz way man!

[@BasicFishingNZ]

thats the weekend/public weekend for ya! learnt that the hard way

[@kermets]

Thats because there were not from NZ

[@sethebdale8805]

Mean

[@mothwhisperer1593]

Man it can be annoying when it gets crowded like that

[@BasicFishingNZ]

oh yea...... but luckily we managed to find a spot and paid off in the end

[@mothwhisperer1593]

Really want to do more fishing bro but school and stuff

[@mothwhisperer1593]

Yesterday I got myself another waterproof tackle box

[@BasicFishingNZ]

haha yea busy life does that to you. really takes a toll especially wen the season fires up

[@mothwhisperer1593]

Basic_Fishing I have a question for you, how do you stop your gear rusting
