Usually find the first ones turn up on the cape soucis side.

For the last few years it is has been much later (feb, march) before they are caught in consistent numbers off tonga, separation etc.

At least that is what we have found. Usually when we have gone out looking for them earlier we just end up catching kingis.

Bugger. Catching Kingfish eh. That must be very disappointing.
