Thanks Hai and they certainly are! It takes record numbers of bonnies for me to get one, it's good to rip that monkey off my back... now time to rip the next monkey (mac tuna) lol
This might give you a laugh. I was squidding the other day around the wharf at Mort Bay, near Balmain and a Watsons Leaping Bonito hit the squid jig and wound up getting tail wrapped in the line. That’s the first time I’ve caught that species, too. So, some people can catch Bonito without even trying! 😂
@Alf Tornatore I was just there at Mort Bay twice! Didn't see a thing lol... knowing my luck Alf, it's gonna be pretty hard to rip that monkey (Watson's) off my back too! 😆
Thanks Zaino! They played ball but worked very hard for the live baits. That dusting was something else, it was still in first gear and I couldn't turn it!
Looks like obelisk you were at, I've had big fish wreck my lines while trying to get livies, I'd suggest around the corner near cobblers instead. Otherwise, good video.
Lucas, I didn't take sea sickness tablets but I was able to hang on lol. It was borderline, but I reckon I'll be much better next time out. I wasn't about to vomit or anything but I did feel it lol
2022 baby!!! Off to a kracka start brødir how exciting was the new species check off glad to experience that !! Keep it going we need a live stream for some beers soon brø
ha.. just watched you measure that Trev and say it was 30 and i was so confused i had to look it up. So in Auz you take the longest measurement. in NZ we take the smallest. so that would barely be a 25cm if that to the shortest part of the tail. I'll have to remember this when im in Aus
@@ShroomFishing I'm possibly moving to Australia in a year or so. so i take it the rules can vary state to state and its just a matter of checking the rules where i end up. Definately seems like Australia is more flexible on the size of the fish. Eg, Kingis are a 75cm min in NZ
@@knivesandstuff Yep that's right. Depends on the state and also it is subject to change. The kingfish limit here is currently at 65cm and again measured to the tip. The fishery here isn't as good as NZ but hopefully it improves
has anyone seen shroom in the hcf add on the tele at the doctors in his undies this is the last time i ask surley some one has seen it makes me chuckle each time ....... another great vid from shroom
Awesome Video Shroom, it was lovely having you onboard and can't wait to fish with you again 😀
Thanks Wag, what a fantastic day
Great channel Wag! Keep it up+
I hope one day i will have a picture with a king fish to. Thanks for the nice video Shroom
Congrats on your first Bonito, Shroom! The Bonnies and Mac Tunas are in numbers around this season!
Thanks Hai and they certainly are! It takes record numbers of bonnies for me to get one, it's good to rip that monkey off my back... now time to rip the next monkey (mac tuna) lol

Haha! You finally bagged a bonnie! That's gold!
Yes it finally happened Alf! The coveted bonito that most people don't bat an eyelid for lol

Nice work, plenty of action on the water.
Thanks a lot Guranto
Wow mate Gotta love the kings. Crazy fish and a crazy vid, keep it up champ

Awesome vid shroom!!! Well done on cracking that bonito, and some nice kingies too bro! Loved it as always, noice 🤙
Thanks Kyle! I've been chasing the bonito for what seems like forever
Wow harbour
Love that place
Great video shroom great fish mate
Thanks X3 Grims, I was pretty stoked with all the fish including that coveted bonito lol
Is that botany bay
No it's outside the heads up the coast
Here's me Thursday fish fix . 👍🎣✔
Yep here it is David, the upload took over 2hrs not including TH-cam's additional processing time and checks which held it back 👍
@@ShroomFishing great work mate . Keep them clips coming pal . ✔️🎣🤙

Good suggestion Dave, I fish all around that headland
Some big kingfish here!
I've never tried offshore fishing as I don't have a boat and I might get boat sick or something lol😂
Lucas, I didn't take sea sickness tablets but I was able to hang on lol. It was borderline, but I reckon I'll be much better next time out. I wasn't about to vomit or anything but I did feel it lol
2022 baby!!! Off to a kracka start brødir how exciting was the new species check off glad to experience that !! Keep it going we need a live stream for some beers soon brø
Thanks Jorre! I haven't been looking to do a live stream but I will since you asked!
Yeah shroom nicely done 👍👍 good job bro👌🐟🐠
Thanks Jonah 😎
Hey shroom how do you know you get a bite on your livie since it is always moving around and thumping the rod tip?
Hey mate with that setup do you fish the bottom for kingfish or just drop it down half way?
Congrats on your first Bonnie. You have caught a mahi mahi before a Bonnie mainly it’s the opposite away around
Thanks a lot SrDucky, awesome looking fish that I need to get into more
Your videos are addictive lol
Thanks!
Nice only Shroomy! Brings back good memories 👌 👌 👌
Thanks Peter! Great place I love long reef, it has been too long
@@ShroomFishing top spot! Can’t wait for part 2. 👌
Congrats on your first Boni 😂 👌
Thanks Owen! *Fist pump* that bonito has eluded me for years lol
@@ShroomFishing got my first the other day on lure off the rocks what a fight they put up it was only about 30cm but went hard ....
Hey bro do you reckon a 150m spool of braid would be enough for livebaiting or would I be spooled cuz with 50lb braid I can lock up and pump the fish
Yes, it’s enough. Some situations you may need more if offshore or off the stones but I think you’ll be fine
I’ve always wanted to catch a king there at the top of my bucket list with barramundi heaps good video keep it up?
Thanks a lot Boed! I've caught a few barra and they are magic! You'll get em!
@@ShroomFishing thanks shroom 🙏
What is the rig you used to hook your live bait up?
Sinker to swivel to about 1 metre trace of 80lb leader and a 7/0 hook
Great video😁
Thank you what a great day 😁

Depends on the species, it's just what the regulating body (DPI Fisheries) dictates so they make the rules
@@ShroomFishing I'm possibly moving to Australia in a year or so. so i take it the rules can vary state to state and its just a matter of checking the rules where i end up. Definately seems like Australia is more flexible on the size of the fish. Eg, Kingis are a 75cm min in NZ

Those drags screaming nearly as much as the chicks in the club when Shroom walks in, woohoo
Haha Rob! I laughed out loud, you win this comment section this week 🤣🤣🤣
How deep were you fishing
Wow nice fishing brother 🥰
Thanks Hussaini! I've been keen as for kingfish haha
Good luck brother
How old is that saltiga rod man??
At least 5 years Kamado but it's not that old I don't think
Would a 6k Saragosa be good for flicking lures for pelagics
Yes, there are lighter reels out there but it will work Nicc
that last kingie was high or something
Probably just had its covid booster shot lol it was dead as
They swallow big yakkas hole bit like a 50$ pro cant breath with the throat full.
Yep, it was as though someone attached a kingie from the shops to my line lol
lods tpos ko na mabisita bahay mo... baka nmn pwd rin sakin... more fish to come lods...
Thanks bro! 👍
Yo shroom i understand it might be secret but where about is that spot??
This is Long Reef
Thanks man
