    Way to go Chris
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    some nice snapper there chris. went out for a rock hop at one of my old spots a couple of sundays ago in kawakawa bay was casting and retrieving one of those inchiku jigs from the warehouse and it got nailed by a big kingi right at my feet never got to land it though but was a good scrap for a few minutes before it got me into the foul ground going to go back with a stick bait and go for another round of trying to land a kingfish.

    Catch a kahawai and stick that out, way cheaper that a stick bait if you get busted off.......far more effective too

    Bugger that for a joke. If you get a Kahawai Hunter308 then eat the fucker.

    If I ever caught a Kingfish with a Kahawai I would be ripping its gut open to get my Kahawai back. Highly under rated fish in my opinion.

    If the kingi is big enough to keep you can have both fish for tea

    They are real nice smoked,not much food on a live bait size Kahawai . Probably the best use for a 150 -200mm size.
