Three Kings rule

Drews 34kg 
 Hi all , well what can i say apart from the Three kings rule big time . Check out some of these hogs that the T.M.P fishing club from Auckland landed, in a unbelievable bite on the middlesex bank that ended with 2 over 40kg and 10 over 30kg. Loads and loads of bait has turned up there (photo of sounder) and its like a war zone with kingi's, marlin and bass all having a good go at it . After stunning kingi fishing the lures went it for 3 mins and we were bit on a double with matty landing this fine 120kg strippy and the other pulling the hook. Fishing doesn't get any better with big bass hitting hard if you drop to the bottom and kingis biting hard mid water and marlin on the top. Wow life's  good  and good weather as well, we keep looking over our shoulder for the wheels to fall off but as they say we must take the good with the bad and at the moment it's all good, till next week cheers Lance

three kings all good

Quintin with his 32kg kingi
Hi all. well as the title say's it's all good at the kings with the last group having a blinder in the way of bass, kingi's and even marlin. In fact the puka fishing was so good we only managed to do 3 hours puka fishing to fill the needs of the table with many of the boys pulling up doubles 1 after the other, the best going 40kg, good to see that most groups are happy to move onto other species once they have a good feed secured, as these fish are very slow growing and must be treated with that in mind.Water temps continue to fall but there are still some hungry marlin around with the Quintin nailing a nice one for the smoker. Kingi's still shine threw  strong as ever with Royce boating the weeks hog at 37kg and Quintin a close second at 32kg. Bait fishing in the morning is good fun with many big trev,s turning up in the burly, Chris nailed this monster all while try to catch bait, great fun on light line. Cheers till next week Lance

metal madness 3 kings

Hi all , as the post before say's dam the weather has been a major player this season, with trip after trip sh#t weather , this year is going to be remembered as the year of the weather, never have we had to put up with weeks and weeks of it. Lucky that the fishing has made up for it with week after week good to great results, latest trip was coxy from the coast with his merry jigging men and despite the weather they had a ball with no fewer than 13 kingi's over the magic 30kg mark, quite outstanding really and some monster puka as well, the best weighing in at 40kg and all on jigs as well with no bait used. Marlin have taken a big knock back with all the south westerly's and temps have cooled to a low of 16-17c not sure if it can make a come back but watch this space as we have still a month more of kings trips to do. till next week cheers Lance
