Going fishing off sydney

 

 

Fishing off Sydney on Sunday

 

Had a great day fishing off sydney on Sunday took the little boat out and had a mate join me who is an accountant from sydney.

 

 

We used the downrigger and ran a lure at 10 metres.

 

 

The results were instant and we caught a heap of undersized kingfish, which we returned to the ocean .  After a while we started to see some bigger fish turn up and were able to get a few keep

a few.

 

After the downrigger I decided to try a micro jig and have included a video of  myself giving this new technique a go. The  japanese have perfected these art with special jigs and rods.

 

The rods are very strong but with very light tips to get the action on the light jigs.

 

As you can see the action needs to be very rapid lifts that give the impression of a wounded or fleeing fish.
