Hi Guys, had a great day out from Whitianga on Friday. We were very lucky with the weather, bad the day before and awful the day after, but great for us on the day!
We landed well over 40 Kingfish and one snapper between the 4 of us, and kept one each. Man these fish are real fighters, its like being attached to a train! They do sometimes take a fly near the surface and I took my salt water fly outfit with me but did not get a surface shot, all fish caught on Jigs and live baits.
Here are a couple of pics.
Me looking pretty pleased.

My mate Nick also looking chuffed

And this one shows the average size of these brutes.

All the best.
Mike
