Late Season Kingfish

Post by scott__henning » Sat Apr 25, 2015 6:02 pm

Had a ripper day out of welshpool today on the kingies, managed to bag out by lunchtime on a day where the forecast was horrible but the actual weather was perfect!

Some of the kingies were caught topwater, made for an exciting day for sure! Unbelievable fishing out here at the moment, who needs to go interstate!

Not a single one. We had welshpool to ourselves, with sunny conditions, no swell, and about a 6-7kn breeze

There was 2 blokes launching when we got back but that was it
